In addition to the general purposes of this Title as set forth in CZC 12.10.030, the various zones each serve more specific purposes as set forth below.

1. Agricultural Zones. Agricultural zones preserve and protect agricultural lands and related activities, permit activities normally and necessarily related to agricultural production, and prohibit land uses that may undermine continued agricultural activity.
   
   1. The purpose of the A-L Zone is to provide areas where single family residences can be located along with low intensity agricultural activities, such as pasturing of animals and farming activities on relatively small lots or parcels.
      
   2. The purpose of the A-M Zone is to permit commercial agricultural activities of medium intensity such as greenhouses and specialty crops.
      
2. Residential Zones. Residential zones allow a wide range of residential land uses at various densities. These zones are intended to protect the stability of neighborhoods and  encourage, collectively, different kinds of compatible residential development.
   
   1. The purpose of the R-L Zone is to permit development of detached single-family homes on individual lots or parcels at densities of one to four units per acre.
      
   2. The purpose of the R-M Zone is to permit well-designed townhomes, two-family dwellings, and condominiums at densities of four to six units per acre that are appropriately buffered from and compatible with surrounding land uses.  Single-family dwellings are also permitted in the R-M Zone.
   3. The purpose of the R-H Zone is to permit well-designed apartments, townhomes,  two-family dwellings, and condominiums at densities of eight to twelve units per acre that are appropriately buffered from and compatible with surrounding land uses.
      
3. Public Facility Zones. Public facility zones accommodate public and quasi-public uses.
   
   1. The purpose of the PF-L Zone is to recognize on the Zoning Map areas of open space, such as parks, conservation areas, United States Forest Service property, and other publically-owned property.
      
   2. The purpose of the PF-M Zone is to recognize on the Zoning Map property of medium intensity uses which is used, owned, or operated by a public or quasi-public entity and which has a relatively low impact on adjacent property. Typical uses include cemeteries, power substations, telephone service buildings, public parks, public schools, and small public office buildings.
      
   3. The purpose of the PF-H Zone is to provide areas for facilities used, owned, or operated by public and quasi public entities and which utilize relatively large areas of land or high intensity uses. This zone is intended to provide immediate recognition of such areas on the official Zoning Map. Typical uses include hospitals, open-air theaters,  public parks, public schools, and public utility facilities.
      
   4. The purpose of the PF-VH Zone is to provide a zone where intense land use activities by public and quasi-public entities can be located. Typical uses include maintenance yards and motor vehicle service areas with outside storage areas.
      
4. Commercial Zones. Commercial zones provide areas where a combination of business, commercial, entertainment, office, and related activities may be established, maintained and protected. Commercial zones are intended to provide a suitable environment for those commercial and service uses vital to the economic base of the City.
   
   1. The purpose of the C-M Zone is to provide areas for commercial activities and professional offices which have less than 10,000 square feet of floor area. This zone is intended to promote a combination of retail and service facilities that meet day to day needs of nearby residents and which are compatible in character and scale with adjacent development.
      
   2. The purpose of the C-H Zone is to accommodate a wide range of commercial uses which have 10,000 to 50,000 square feet of floor area. Typical uses include offices, retail stores, restaurants, and institutional uses.
      
   3. The purpose of the C-VH Zone is to accommodate a wide range of commercial uses which have 50,000 square feet or more of floor area in a building, or which have relatively heavy vehicle traffic. Typical uses include offices, retail stores, fast food stores, vehicle service facilities, heavy commercial, and institutional uses.  Uses in this zone may also include lodging facilities, travel plazas, restaurants,  and commuter parking.
      
5. Industrial Zones. Industrial zones provide areas for conducting business, manufacturing and industrial activities.
   
   1. The purpose of the I-M Zone is to provide aesthetically attractive planned developments having a mix of office, research and development, light manufacturing, and limited retail uses, which have less than 10,000 square feet in floor area in a building. Typical uses include offices, clean indoor manufacturing facilities, service retail, restaurants, athletic clubs, medical offices, office/warehouse buildings, and research facilities.
      
   2. The purpose of the I-H Zone is to provide areas for uses involving processing and assembly of manufactured goods, warehousing, and material storage. Uses which generate excessive noise, vibration, odor, dust, and fumes are excluded from this zone.
      
   3. The purpose of the I-VH Zone is to provide areas where uses involving industrial processes, natural resource extraction, and other heavy uses may be permitted without negatively impacting other areas of the City, especially when undertaken on a large scale. To assure compatibility with uses in other adjacent zones, many such uses are allowed only as a conditional use.
      
6. Special Purpose and Overlay Zones. Special purpose zones are intended to accomplish objectives unique to the particular zone. Overlay zones implement supplemental regulations that apply geographically, regardless of the underlying base zone. Whenever the regulations of a base zone and an overlay zone conflict, overlay zone regulations shall apply.
   
   1. The purpose of the PDO zone is to permit a compatible, master-planned mix of various types of residential uses in combination with open space components on land that has unique or unusual characteristics that warrant customized development requirements. Although residential dwelling type and development size may vary from location to location, each development is intended to consist of well-designed, architecturally integrated structures which are appropriately landscaped and buffered from surrounding land uses.
      
   2. The purpose of the SD zone is to encourage master-planned, architecturally-designed, mixed-use development, where customized zoning requirements apply in order to permit flexibility and initiative in site development.
      

1. Zones. The location and boundaries of the zones described in this Chapter, including subsequent amendments, shall be shown on an official zoning map, entitled the Centerville City Zoning Map, as provided in this Section.
   
   1. The zones established by this Chapter are intended to further the goals and policies of the General Plan. Accordingly, not every zone established by this Chapter need be included on the Zoning Map unless and until the City Council, in the exercise of its legislative discretion, determines that placing a particular property in a particular zone will further the goals and policies of the General Plan.
      
   2. Each lot or parcel within the City shall be subject to the requirements of the zone, or zones, in which the lot or parcel is located as shown on the Zoning Map.

1. Applicability. Where uncertainty exists as to the boundary of any zone shown on the Zoning Map, the provisions of this Section shall apply to determine the location of such boundary. This Section shall apply only when uncertainty exists.
   
2. Center Lines and Property Lines. When a zone boundary is indicated as being approximately upon the center line of a street, alley or block, or along a property line, the center line of such street, alley or block or such property line shall be construed to be the boundary of such zone.
   
3. Waterways and Public Lands. When a zone boundary is indicated as being approximately at the line of any river, irrigation canal or other waterway or public land, then the center of the stream, canal or waterway, or the boundary line of the public land shall be deemed to be the boundary of the zone.
   
4. Street Vacations. When a public road, street, or alley is officially vacated, such property shall have the same zoning as the adjacent property. In the event vacated property is adjacent to two zones, each zone shall extend to the center line of the vacated right-of-way.
   
5. Uncertainties. When a physical or cultural feature existing on the ground is at variance with one shown on the Zoning Map, or in the event any other uncertainty exists with respect to a zone boundary, the Zoning Administrator shall determine the boundary location, subject to appeal to the Board of Adjustment as provided in this Title.
   
6. Action by Zoning Administrator. If application of the above rules does not clarify the location of a zone boundary, the Zoning Administrator shall determine the proper boundary subject to appeal to the Board of Adjustment as provided in this Title.

1. Ambiguous Zone. Any property which is not clearly zoned on the Zoning Map shall be deemed to be in the A-L zone. 
   
2. Ambiguous Use. If ambiguity arises concerning the classification of a particular use within the meaning and intent of this Title, or with respect to matters of height, yard requirements, area requirements, or other property development standards, the Zoning Administrator shall determine the proper use or development standard, subject to appeal to the Board of Adjustment as provided in this Title.
