Bromley City Zoning Code

ARTICLE 3

Zoning Districts

3.01 Zoning Districts Established

The City of Bromley, Kentucky is hereby divided into the following zoning districts as listed in Table 3.1 Zoning Districts Established. These districts are categorized into two major classes of districts, standard districts and special districts.

Effective on: 1/1/1901

3.02 Standard Districts in General

Standard districts are divided into one of the following categories: Residential Districts, Commercial Districts, Employment Districts, or Other Districts. Each standard district serves a different purpose and imposes its own set of requirements and restrictions on the use of land in addition to the general requirements and restrictions imposed on all land or uses within the zoning jurisdiction. A standard district may be layered with an overlay district.

Effective on: 1/1/1901

3.03 Special Districts in General

Special districts are a type of district established to implement adopted plans such as the Comprehensive Plan, area plans, and corridor plans, or detailed site plans approved as part of the rezoning process. The regulations contained within this Article for such districts are provided as a framework for review and approval. A significant part of the detail for each district is contained within an adopted plan and must be reflected in proposed district site plans and documentation.

Overlay districts are a type of special district established to provide for certain additional requirements, to permit uses not otherwise permitted in the underlying standard district, to prohibit uses allowed in the underlying standard district, or to establish special development requirements for uses permitted in the standard district. Thus, where overlay districts exist and there is a conflict between the requirements or uses specified between the overlay and the underlying district, the standards of the overlay district shall prevail. Otherwise, the standards of the underlying district shall also be in effect for any area additionally zoned for an overlay district.

Effective on: 1/1/1901

The intent of the Residential Conventional Subdivision District is to provide opportunities for a range of single-family lot sizes. The defined character may vary by neighborhood, but new developments should reflect the scale of adjacent neighborhoods. Conventional subdivisions should have walkable, well-connected street systems that connect to adjacent neighborhoods and destinations. Supporting non-residential uses, such as parks, schools, and places of worship, may also be appropriate.
