A.

Establishment of Zoning Districts. For the purpose of this chapter, the planning jurisdiction is divided into the following zoning districts. Each of the zoning districts stands alone and is not part of a hierarchy-system of zoning.

Only those uses and standards that are expressly indicated and noted for each district apply to that district.

RR - Residential, Rural
RSN - Residential, Suburban Neighborhood
RS-1 - Residential, Suburban One
RS-2 - Residential, Suburban Two
RS-3 - Residential, Suburban Three

RT-1 - Residential, Traditional One
RT-2 - Residential, Traditional Two
RT-3 - Residential, Traditional Three
3. Multifamily Residential Zoning Districts.
RM - Residential, Multifamily
RMH - Residential, Manufactured Home Park
4. Mixed-Use Zoning Districts.
MXD - Mixed-Use, Downtown Center

17.16.020 - Land uses.[3]

A.

Land Uses Specified. Each land use is either a permitted, nonpermitted or a special exception use in each zoning district. A general list of permitted and special exception uses for each district are noted in the "Permitted Uses" and "Special Exceptions" columns accompanying the description of each district in this section. Specific land uses within each general category are listed in the Land Use Matrix set out in this section.

B.

Unlisted or Questionable Land Uses. Any use not listed as a permitted use or special exception use is considered nonpermitted. The planning director may determine into which category any questionable use is placed if it is not specifically listed but is similar to another use that is a permitted or a special exception use. This determination may be appealed to the board of zoning appeals consistent with the provisions of Section 17.48.050 for appeals of administrative decisions.
