Where there is a question, the land could be developed with the use of a variance. It was the consensus of opinion that whatever amount is set in the zoning ordinance, it should take the burden off the Village and be the developer's risk. l , NOVEMBER 29, 1973 PAGE 2 Brander motioned and Alto ~s~ec~onded--there should be a public hearing to amend Ordinance No. ~2,~ ``~o. , to provide for three acre lots where there is no water and sewer, and there should be ten days published notice.
