Article III, Use Performance Standards, and Article IV, Site Performance Standards, set general performance for all uses and for all zoning districts. The performance standards are designed to permit only uses and site arrangements which are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and which promote the public health, safety, welfare, comfort and convenience, without causing nuisance, hazard or environmental degradation.

In exercising their review functions under this chapter, the Zoning Administrator, Zoning Board of Appeals, Plan Commission and the Common Council shall consider and apply the goals, objectives and policies of the City of Monona Comprehensive Plan and the Urban Design Guidelines for Monona Drive. (The Comprehensive Plan is adopted by reference and is on file in the office of the Zoning Administrator.)
