In order to carry out the purpose and provisions of this Chapter, the Town is hereby divided into the following zoning districts:

The intent of each zoning district is as described in the following sections.

(Ord. No. 83-116, Art. IX, 1983; Ord. No. 2000-02, Art. IX, 2000)

It is the intent of this District to provide for orderly development of single-family residential areas on three- to ten-acre lots. Farm-type animals, including horses, sheep, llamas, cattle and goats, will be allowed. Other animals will require approval of the Town. This District requires adequate irrigation water rights if the property to be improved has been previously irrigated and water rights were utilized, and must have a plan for distribution (see Section 16-3-110 of this Chapter).

(Ord. No. 2000-02, Art. IX, 2000; Ord. No. 2014-04, § 1, 1-13-2015)

It is the intent of the this District to provide for the orderly development of single-family residential site-built or manufactured built homes, depending on covenants for the area.

(Ord. No. 2000-02, Art. IX, 2000; Ord. No. 2014-04, § 1, 1-13-2015)

It is the intent of this District to allow for the orderly and creative development of attached and detached single-family, two-family and multiple-family dwellings at moderate densities. Such areas are intended to serve as a transition between the lower-density zoning districts and the higher-density residential areas and commercially zoned areas.

(Ord. No. 2000-02, Art. IX, 2000; Ord. No. 2014-04, § 1, 1-13-2015)

It is the intent of this District to provide for the orderly and creative development of residential areas with density substantially higher than the Low-Density or Medium-Density Districts yet compatible with the present scale and character of the Town. Higher density residential areas may be appropriately located as a part of planned developments, adjacent to medium-density residential areas, commercially zoned areas, adjacent to the core commercial area or downtown and within close proximity to major collector or arterial streets.

(Ord. No. 2000-02, Art. IX, 2000; Ord. No. 2014-04, § 1, 1-13-2015)

It is the intent of this District to be composed of two (2) subdistricts, Mobile Home Parks (MH1) and Mobile Home Subdivisions (MH2). Mobile homes will be restricted to this District except as specified in Article 8 of this Chapter. This District is designed to provide orderly development of single-family residential mobile home parks having rented lots and subdivisions having homeowner lots. These subdistricts may require appropriate screening and/or buffer zones from other districts and zones. (See Article 8 of this Chapter for regulations.)

(Ord. No. 2000-02, Art. IX, 2000; Ord. No. 2014-04, § 1, 1-13-2015)

It is the intent of this District to provide for the orderly development of those commercial and business uses, government, educational and cultural facilities that are characteristic of downtown areas and promote comparison shopping and pedestrian activity in the core area. This District is not intended for businesses and commercial uses that are oriented to the automobile and require extensive ground-level floor area.

(Ord. No. 2000-02, Art. IX, 2000; Ord. No. 2014-04, § 1, 1-13-2015)

It is the intent of this District to augment the commercial and business needs of the community by providing for the orderly development of commercial facilities that, because of their specific nature, require closer access to arterial routes or immediate access to large parking areas or require generally larger ground-level floor areas than the smaller retail shops as encouraged in the core commercial areas.

(Ord. No. 2000-02, Art. IX, 2000; Ord. No. 2014-04, § 1, 1-13-2015)

It is the intent of this District to provide for the development of industrial uses that will enhance the economy of the Town and be designed and planned in a manner that will be compatible with the character of the community and not add pollution or other undesirable effects to the adjoining properties or to the community as a whole.

(Ord. No. 2000-02, Art. IX, 2000; Ord. No. 2014-04, § 1, 1-13-2015)

The intent of this District is to allow for basic or primary industries which are generally not compatible with residential and/or commercial activity. Certain extremely obnoxious, hazardous and noisy uses will require special permission to locate in this District.

(Ord. No. 2000-02, Art. IX, 2000; Ord. No. 2014-04, § 1, 1-13-2015)

It is the intent of this District to provide for the zoning of those areas to be annexed that are eligible for annexation and are designated in the Comprehensive Plan as potentially suitable for urban development but not in the immediate future because of lack of utilities or other public services. DR District zoning should be applied to existing agricultural or open space areas with minimal present development.

(Ord. No. 2000-02, Art. IX, 2000; Ord. No. 2014-04, § 1, 1-13-2015)

It is the intent of this District to provide a special district for those lands that are dedicated for public use for recreational or educational purposes or for other public facilities or services. New construction and development will require special review.

(Ord. No. 2000-02, Art. IX, 2000; Ord. No. 2014-04, § 1, 1-13-2015)
