2.101

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Sec. 2.101.01. - Interpretation of uses.

A.

Types of uses. Within each zone, uses are classified as permitted, special permitted and conditional. Further, uses are functionally classified by description of the particular activity (such as single-family residence) or by the general category with reference to the Standard Industrial Classification Manual. (5/98)

B.

Standard Industrial Classification. Uses functionally classified with reference to the Standard Industrial Classification Manual (SIC) are described with the SIC index number assigned in the manual, e.g., (8734). Some activities, otherwise included under an SIC category, may be specifically excluded by this ordinance. The excluded activity will be placed in the general SIC category but identified by the preceding words: "BUT (or AND) EXCLUDING." For example: "Food store (54), but excluding freezer and locker meat provisioners." (5/98)

C.

Interpretation of uses. Where a use is not described with reference to SIC or otherwise defined in section 1.2, the words of this zoning ordinance describing such use are to be given their ordinarily accepted meaning, except where the context in which they are used otherwise clearly requires. (5/98)

D.

Prohibited uses. Uses not specifically identified as permitted, special permitted or conditionally permitted within the zone or otherwise allowed through interpretation shall be considered prohibited uses. (5/98)
