Principal uses are allowed in R Districts in accordance with table 6-1 of this section.

   A.   Use Classification System: Uses are listed in the first column of table 6-1 of this section. This UDO classifies uses into categories and subcategories, which are defined in this chapter. In some cases, specific use types and building types are listed in addition to the use categories and subcategories. Building types are also defined in this chapter.

   B.   Permitted Uses: Uses identified with a "P" are permitted as- of-right in the subject zoning district, subject to compliance with any supplemental regulations identified in the final column of table 6-1 of this section and with all other applicable regulations of this UDO.

This section establishes and describes the use categorization system used to classify principal uses in this UDO.

   A.   Use Categories: This UDO classifies principal land uses into eight (8) major groupings (described in sections 10-6-3 through 10-6-10 of this chapter). These major groupings are referred to as "use categories". The use categories are as follows:

      1.   Residential. See section 10-6-3 of this chapter.

      2.   Public, civic and institutional. See section 10-6-4 of this chapter.

      3.   Commercial. See section 10-6-5 of this chapter.

      4.   Wholesale, distribution and storage. See section 10-6-6 of this chapter.

      5.   Industrial. See section 10-6-7 of this chapter.

      6.   Recycling. See section 10-6-8 of this chapter.

      7.   Agricultural. See section 10-6-9 of this chapter.

      8.   Other. See section 10-6-10 of this chapter.

   B.   Use Subcategories: Each use category is further divided into more specific "subcategories". Use subcategories classify principal land uses and activities based on common functional, product or physical characteristics, such as the type and amount of activity, the type of customers or residents, and how goods or services are sold or delivered and site conditions.

   C.   Specific Use Types: Some use subcategories are further broken down to identify specific types of uses that are regulated differently than the subcategory as a whole.

   D.   Determination Of Use Categories And Subcategories:

      1.   The Community Development Director has the authority to classify uses on the basis of the use category, subcategory and specific use type descriptions of this chapter.

      2.   When a use cannot be reasonably classified into a use category, subcategory or specific use type, or appears to fit into multiple categories, subcategories or specific use types, the Community Development Director is authorized to determine the most similar and thus most appropriate use category, subcategory or specific use type based on the actual or projected characteristics of the principal use or activity in relationship to the use category, subcategory and specific use type descriptions provided in this chapter. In making such determinations, the Community Development Director must consider:

         a.   The types of activities that will occur in conjunction with the use;

         b.   The types of equipment and processes to be used;

         c.   The existence, number and frequency of residents, customers or employees;

         d.   Parking demands associated with the use; and

         e.   Other factors deemed relevant to a use determination.

      3.   If a use can reasonably be classified in multiple categories, subcategories or specific use types, the Community Development Director is authorized to categorize each use in the category, subcategory or specific use type that provides the most exact, narrowest and appropriate "fit". (Ord. 2018-16, 12-4-2018)

This category includes uses that provide living accommodations for one or more persons. The residential use subcategories are as follows.

   A.   Household Living: Residential occupancy of a dwelling unit by a household. When dwelling units are rented, tenancy is arranged on a month-to-month or longer basis. Uses where tenancy may be arranged for a shorter period are not considered residential; they are considered a form of lodging. Household living uses must occupy a residential building type that is permitted in the subject zoning districts, as indicated in section 10-6-1, table 6-1 of this chapter. The residential building types are as follows:

      1.   Detached House: A detached house is a principal residential building, other than a manufactured housing unit or mobile home, that contains only one dwelling unit and that is located on a single lot that is not occupied by other principal residential buildings. Detached houses are not attached to and do not abut other dwelling units. Detached houses include conventional ("stick-built") construction and construction involving modular or system-built components as long as such construction complies with applicable Building Codes.

      2.   Patio House: A patio house is a principal residential building occupied by one dwelling unit and that is located on a single lot that is not occupied by other principal residential buildings. Patio houses are not attached to and do not abut other dwelling units. The building is shifted to one side of the lot so that there is a more usable side yard on one side of the house and very little or no private yard on the other side.

      4.   Duplex: A duplex is a principal residential building occupied by two (2) dwelling units, both of which are located on a single lot that is not occupied by other principal residential buildings. The two (2) dwelling units are attached and may be located on separate floors or side-by-side.

      5.   Multi-Unit House: A multi-unit house is a principal residential building that contains three (3) or four (4) dwelling units that share common walls and/or common floors/ceilings. The building is located on a single lot that is not occupied by other principal residential buildings. Multi-unit houses have the appearance of large detached houses and have only one entrance visible from the street.

      6.   Apartment/Condo: An apartment/condo building is a principal residential building on a single lot that is occupied by three (3) or more dwelling units (other than a multi-unit house) that share common walls and/or common floors/ceilings.

      7.   Manufactured Housing Unit: A manufactured housing unit is a principal residential building that complies with the National Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety Standards Act of 1974 (42 USC section 5401, et seq.).

      8.   Manufactured Housing Subdivision: A manufactured housing subdivision is a residential subdivision primarily comprising home sites for manufactured housing units on individual lots. Manufactured housing subdivisions are subject to the supplemental regulations of section 10-7-7 of this title.
