Section 6-1-1. - Organization.
(A)
The Use Matrix organizes permitted uses by use zoning district, use categories, and use types. The Use Matrix, Article VII, Use Performance Standards, and Article XI, Definitions, of this Ordinance, together provide a systematic basis for identifying and organizing uses and distinguishing unidentified uses to determine whether a particular use is allowable in a particular zoning district.
(1)
Use classifications. Use classifications identify broad general classifications of land use and include agricultural uses; residential uses; public, civic, and recreational uses; commercial uses; industrial uses; and miscellaneous uses.
(2)
Use types. The specific use types identify the specific principal uses that fall within each use classification.
(B)
If a use's definition states that the particular use is permitted as ancillary or accessory to another use, a second Zoning Permit is not required for that ancillary or accessory use.
Section 6-1-2. - Utilization of Use Matrix.
(A)
Permitted Uses. "B" in a Use Matrix cell indicates that the use type in that row is allowed by-right in the zoning district at the head of that column, subject to any Use Performance Standards of Article VII and any Overlay District restrictions in Article V, of this Ordinance.
(B)
Special Exception Uses. "SE" in a Use Matrix cell indicates that the use type in that row is allowed in the zoning district at the head of that column only upon approval of a Special Exception Permit, in accordance with Article III, Permits and Applications, and subject to any Use Performance Standards in Article VII and any Overlay District restrictions in Article V, of this Ordinance.
(C)
Prohibited Uses. Blank cells in the Use Matrix indicates that the use type in that row is prohibited in the zoning district at the head of that column.
Section 6-2-1. - Use Not Provided.
(A)
Any use that is not specifically listed as a permitted use or a Special Exception use is prohibited.
(B)
The Administrator will determine whether an unlisted use is part of an existing use category or use type as defined in Article XI, Definitions, of this Ordinance. Upon determining the most similar use type, the Administrator will treat the proposed use the same as the most similar use.
(C)
If the Administrator determines that the proposed use is not similar to any listed use type, that use is prohibited.
