DISTRICT

§ 157.070 PURPOSE.

The district regulations are designed to encourage compatibility with adjacent or nearby land uses.
   (B)   The cannabis overlay district is intended to only regulate cannabis business establishments. All other uses shall be subject to the regulations of the underlying zoning district.
