There shall be a Public Zoning District (P) which shall be shown on the official zoning map. The Public District is established as a district in which the land is owned by federal, state or municipal governments, or agencies thereof. The only uses permitted in Public Zoning Districts are the use of land or structures or both by the United States government, the State of Rhode Island, or the Town of Middletown, or any agency thereof in the exercise of a governmental or proprietary function.

   Should the title or any interest in any land located in a Public District be transferred to a person other than a federal, state or municipal government or agency thereof, no use other than that permitted by this subchapter shall be permitted until such land is re-zoned by the Town Council in accordance with the Comprehensive Community Plan to an appropriate zoning district compatible with surrounding uses, and according to the procedure for amendment specified in Article 28.
