Taylorsville City Zoning Code

CHAPTER 13

08 LAND USES IN THE COMMERCIAL, OFFICE, INDUSTRIAL, MIXED USE, TRANSIT CORRIDOR, AND RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT DISTRICTS

13.08.010: PURPOSE AND APPLICABILITY:

   A.   Purpose: The Commercial Districts land use standards are intended to:
      1.   Allow a mixture of complementary land uses that may include retail, offices, commercial services, civic uses, and housing to create economic and social vitality, and to encourage the linking of trips; and
      2.   Develop commercial areas that encourage walking as an alternative to driving and provide employment and housing options.
   B.   Applicability: Uses permitted under this chapter shall conform to the development standards provided elsewhere in this Development Code, and to the application
   procedures for development as applicable. For each zoning district or land use type additional regulations may apply as defined in this Code. Uses shall also conform to any Overlay District requirements that are applicable. Uses permitted as a conditional use shall also comply with the requirements for administrative conditional use permits and nonadministrative conditional use permits as required in this title. (Ord. 18-26, 10-17-2018; amd. Ord. 21-10, 5-19-2021)

13.08.020: PERMITTED LAND USE TABLE BY THE COMMERCIAL, OFFICE, INDUSTRIAL, MIXED USE, TRANSIT CORRIDOR, AND RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT DISTRICTS:

   A.   Table Explanation: The table below identifies permitting types within the Commercial, Office, Industrial, Mixed Use, Transit Corridor, and Research and Development Districts:
 
P
=

AC
=
Administrative conditional
NC
=

N

PLC

   For those letters which are followed by a slash “/”, the second letter shall indicate those location restrictions for uses located within two hundred fifty feet (250') of a Residential District( unless bisected by a principal arterial road as determined by the City Engineer or as identified in the transportation element of the City general plan).
   For those land uses marked with a superscript number( i. e., AC1), refer to the notes following the table for explanation.
   B.   Categorizing: The land uses outlined in this title are intended to categorize uses and are not intended to be exhaustive or mutually exclusive descriptions of all possible land uses.
   C.   Uses Not Listed: Any land use type not listed or included in the table of uses is prohibited unless the Director determines that the use is of the same character and intensity as another permitted or conditional use so listed. The Director may allow the establishment of the said use subject to a determination of the following criteria:
      1.   The establishment of the use will be in accordance with the purposes of the district in which that use is proposed.
      2.   The use will be an appropriate addition to the zone because it has the same basic characteristics as the other uses permitted in the district.
      3.   The use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare.
      4.   The use shall not adversely affect the character of that district in which it is proposed to be established.
      5.   The use will not create more traffic, odor, dust, dirt, smoke, noise, vibration, illumination, glare, unsightliness, or any other objectionable influence than the amount normally created by any of the uses listed as uses in that district.
   D.   Uses Not Similar: Where a use not listed is found by the Director to not be similar to any other permitted or conditional use, the use shall be permitted only following a text amendment to this title.
