Village Zoning Board upheld a Village order directing homeowners to stop using their property for commercial boarding of horses because it was not a permitted agricultural use in R-1 zoned district. Commercial boarding of horses is not "agriculture" as defined in Village's Zoning Code. That "animal husbandry" and "breeding and raising horses" are described as included within Code's definition of agriculture does not indicate that commercial boarding is considered as agriculture. (QUINN and MURPHY, concurring.)
