§ 4.2. USE MATRIX.  


Latest version.
  • (A) Use matrix.
    (1) For Table 4.1: Use Matrix, specific uses located in the left column are designated as either permitted uses “P” or conditional uses “C.” If there is no designation, that use is not permitted within that district.
    (2) A development plan is required for approval for all uses except for those specifically labeled as such, including crop production, farm (general), grazing and pasture land and infill development/minor subdivisions for single-family and two-family residential uses.
    (B) Explanation of use classifications.
    (1) Permitted uses.
    (a) Permitted uses are those uses allowed without special permission of the Board of Zoning Appeals, given that they follow the standards and requirements set forth in this ordinance.
    (b) A PRINCIPAL USE is defined as the primary use to which a property is devoted and as the main purpose for which the property exists. A principal use may be authorized as either a permitted use or a conditional use.
    (2) Conditional uses.
    (a) CONDITIONAL USES are those uses that, because of potential incompatibility and negative impact on the immediate neighborhood, require additional review in order to determine compliance with city standards and to determine their suitability in a given location.
    (b) In order to achieve balance between the public benefit and the local impact, conditional uses are only permitted following a public hearing and approval by the Board of Zoning Appeals, as per Chapter 2: Administration.
    (3) Unlisted or questionable land uses.
    (a) Any use not listed as a permitted use or conditional use within the use matrix, is considered to be not permitted within the applicable zoning district.
    (b) The Administrator may determine where an unlisted use falls within the use matrix if it is not specifically listed but is similar to another use that is.
    (c) This determination may be appealed to the Board of Zoning Appeals consistent with the provisions of § 2.4.
