2. B.
   Organization of Use Tables. Section 3.02, Tables 3.02.01-1 through 3.02.05-1 (Use Tables) organize the uses in each zoning district by Use Classifications, Use Categories, and specific Uses.

   1. 1.
      Use Classifications. Use Classifications are identified by the white rows in each use table. The Use Classifications organize Uses into broad general classifications (e.g., Residential, Lodging, Commercial, Public/Civic/Institutional, Industrial/Production, Infrastructure, Agriculture, etc.). 
   2. 2.
      Use Categories. Use Classifications are further divided into Use Categories (the teal shaded rows in each use table). The Use Categories describe the major sub-groups of the Use Classification. For example, the Residential Use Classification is divided into two major Use Categories: Household Living and Group Living. 
   3. 3.
      Use. Use Classifications or Use Categories are then divided into specific Uses (the alternating white and blue highlighted rows in each use table). For example, single-family detached dwellings, multifamily dwellings, and single-family attached dwellings are uses in the Household Living Use Category.
3. C.
   Use Categories and Uses Defined. Use Categories and uses listed in Section 3.02 are defined in Chapter 12.
4. D.
   Use Approvals. Use Tables establish the following use approvals:

   Table 3.01-2. Key to Use Table
   Notation	Approval	Description
   P	Permitted	A “P” indicates that a specific Use is permitted in the zoning district, subject to compliance with all standards and regulations in the Zoning Ordinance and all other applicable County ordinances.
   S	Special Exception	An “S” indicates that a Use may be allowed in the zoning district as a Special Exception subject to conditions imposed by the Board of Supervisors, in accordance with the procedures and standards for special exceptions in Section 10.11.01.
   M	Minor Special Exception	An “M” indicates that a Use may be permitted in the zoning district as a Minor Special Exception subject to conditions of approval imposed by the Board of Supervisors, in accordance with the procedures and standards for Minor Special Exceptions in Section 10.11.02.
   P/S, M/S, or P/M	Varies	In some instances and based on Chapter 4, Use-Specific Standards, a Use will be a Permitted Use under certain conditions or may be allowed by Special Exception or Minor Special Exception approval under other conditions. Those instances are identified as “P/S,” "M/S," or “P/M,” as appropriate.
   	Prohibited	A blank cell indicates that the use is not permitted in the zoning district.

5. E.
   Use-Specific Standards. Some principal uses in Tables 3.02.01 through 3.02.05 and accessory uses in Table 3.03-1 are subject to certain use-specific standards prescribed in Chapter 4 of the Zoning Ordinance. In those instances, the Use Table includes a cross-reference to the applicable section in Chapter 4. 
6. F.
   Multiple Principal Uses on Lots. Each principal permitted use must meet the minimum lot area requirement for each use when 1 or more of the uses has a minimum lot area specified in Chapter 4, Use-Specific Standards. 
7. G.

   Uses Not Defined.

   1. 1.
      If a proposed use is not identified in Section 3.02 or Section 3.03, the Zoning Administrator may determine whether that use falls within the definition of an identified principal or accessory use pursuant to Section 10.02.
   2. 2.
      In determining whether the proposed use falls within the definitions of an identified use, the Zoning Administrator must refer to the Merriam-Webster online dictionary (merriam-webster.com).
   3. 3.
      If the Zoning Administrator determines that an unlisted proposed use does not fall within the definition of a use identified and defined in the Zoning Ordinance, the use is not permitted unless the Board of Supervisors, in its discretion, approves a Zoning Ordinance Amendment (Section 10.10.02) to allow such use.
8. H.
   Stream Restoration and Wetland Mitigation. Stream Restoration and Wetland Mitigation are exempt from the zoning district requirements in Chapter 2 but are subject to the applicable regulations prescribed in Section 5.03 Floodplain Overlay District, Section 5.04 Mountainside Overlay District, Section 5.05 Limestone Overlay District, and Chapter 6: Natural and Environmental Resources.
