4 "Section 5. The Counties Code is amended by adding
5 Section 5-12009.5 as follows:
6 (55 ILCS 5/5-12009.5 new)
7 Sec. 5-12009.5. Special use authorization. The county
8 board may provide for the classification of special uses.
9 "Special uses" may include but are not limited to public and

11 may have unique, special, or unusual impact upon the use or
12 enjoyment of neighboring property, and planned developments.
13 A use may be a permitted use in one or more zoning districts

15 A special use may be permitted only after a public
16 hearing before the county zoning commission with prior notice
17 given as provided in Section 5-12009 of this Division. A

22 standards.
