ZONED E1: AGRICULTURE. The property also comes with written approval from Crystal Lake's City Council for residential use-allowing for single-family homes, multi-family residences, mixed-use projects, or even a new business seeking a high-visibility location. PLEASE NOTE: Breakdown of rules regarding pole barns (as accessory structures), farm animals, sanitary systems and wells... POLE BARNS (Accessory Structures): HEIGHT: Detached accessory structures, including pole barns, are limited to 20 feet in height.. SETBACKS: Accessory structures must be at least 10 feet from any lot line. PERMIT REQUIREMENTS: Submittal requirements may include a completed application, plat of survey showing the proposed location, size, height, and setbacks from property lines, house, and other structures, and construction plans. FARM ANIMALS: Chickens (hens only) are permitted, but there are specific regulations: No more than six (6) chickens per property. No commercial activity related to the chickens is allowed. Roosters are prohibited, though male chicks can be kept for up to six months if sex is indeterminate at hatching. Chickens must be kept in coops and fenced runs at all times, in coops from dusk to dawn. Coops and runs must be in the rear yard, at least 10 feet from any lot line and other structures. Facilities must be kept clean, sanitary, and free of vermin, and should not create nuisances. Facilities must ensure the animals' health and well-being. Coops and runs must be adequately lighted and ventilated. No storage of chicken manure is permitted within 20 feet of the lot line. On-site slaughtering of chickens is prohibited. SEPTIC SYSTEMS: Permits are required for installation, modification, alteration, extension, repair, replacement, or abandonment of septic systems in McHenry County. The system must function in a sanitary manner, prevent health hazards, and not endanger water supplies. Sewage and effluent cannot be discharged onto the ground surface or into ditches, drainage structures, surface water, or aquifers. Minimum distance setbacks between system components, wells, water bodies, and property lines must be observed. Proper site selection and maintenance are crucial to avoid issues like surface water accumulation and soil damage. Soil boring data from a soil classifier is necessary to determine soil suitability. Expansion area for a second subsurface seepage system is required for new construction. Septic tanks must be pumped by a licensed contractor as needed. Septic tank capacities for residential properties are based on the number of bedrooms, with a minimum of 1,000 gallons. Aerobic Treatment Units (ATUs) are allowed, but require frequent maintenance. WELLS: New wells cannot be located within 200 feet of a potential primary or secondary source of contamination or route of contamination, according to the Illinois General Assembly. Private wells should be located at least 50 feet from a septic tank and 75 feet from conventional septic system distribution lines. The well cap should be a minimum of 8 inches above ground and properly screened. Annual water testing for at least total coliform bacteria, E. coli, and nitrates is recommended. Testing is also advised after heavy rains, flooding, or well repairs. Avoid storing hazardous chemicals near the well. Slope the ground away from the well for drainage. PERMITS ARE REQUIRED for well construction, deepening, modification, capping, or sealing. IT IS ADVISABLE TO CONTACT MCHENRY COUNTY FOR THE MOST CURRENT AND SPECIFIC REGULATIONS FOR YOUR PROPERTY.
