§ 47-1.14. Interpretation of permitted and conditional uses.

A.

Where a zoning district contains a List of Permitted and Conditional Uses the following shall apply:

1.

Permitted uses are listed under the heading, Permitted Uses , and are designated by categories permitted within each zoning district, indicating that such use shall be permitted within the specific zoning district, subject to the requirements of such zoning district.

2.

Where a listed use is followed by a reference to other sections of the ULDR which apply to the use, then the use is permitted subject to compliance with such additional provisions and requirements as set forth in the ULDR.

3.

Conditional uses are listed under the heading, Conditional Uses , and are listed by categories permitted within a district, indicating that such use may be permitted within the specific zoning district, as indicated, subject to compliance with procedures and requirements for conditional use permits as set forth in the ULDR.

4.

Permitted or accessory uses which are not specifically listed but are substantially similar to those uses listed as permitted or accessory within a district shall be deemed to be permitted as interpreted by the zoning administrator.

5.

Any use not substantially similar to those permitted or accessory uses listed within a district shall be deemed to be prohibited as interpreted by the zoning administrator.

B.

In all zoning districts, the following definition of permitted, conditional, accessory and prohibited uses shall apply.

1.

A permitted use is a use allowed in a particular zoning district, subject to the requirements provided in the ULDR. A permitted use may become a conditional use based on Section 47-23, Specific Location Requirements, or as otherwise required by the ULDR.

2.

A conditional use is a use which may be allowed in a particular zoning district only after compliance with all the conditions and standards for the location or operation of the use, as required by conditional use permit, as provided in Sec. 47-24.3.

3.

An accessory use is any use of land or of a building or portion thereof customarily incidental and subordinate to the principal use of the land or building and located on the same parcel with the principal use which meets the requirements of Section 47-19, Accessory Uses, Buildings and Structures.

4.

A secondary use is a second principal use which is only permitted in connection with another principal use.

5.

A prohibited use is any use which is not listed as a permitted, conditional or accessory use in a zoning district, and which is not substantially similar to those uses listed as a permitted, conditional or accessory use in that zoning district.
