The purpose of the P-L zone is to implement the Toledo Comprehensive Land Use Plan by indicating lands currently providing areas to benefit the public, regardless of ownership of the lot or parcel, and used for a public use such as schools and parks acknowledging that such lands may be put to a variety of uses.

(Ord. 1286 § 1 (part), 2001)

(Ord. No. 1364, § 3, 11-2-2016)

In a P-L zone, the following uses and their accessory uses are permitted outright:

A.

Uses existing at the time of passage of the ordinance from which this chapter is derived and the expansion of those uses are permitted outright.

Transportation facilities (operation, maintenance, preservation, and construction in accordance with the city Transportation System Plan).

(Ord. 1286 § 1 (part), 2001)

(Ord. No. 1355, § 16, 9-17-2014)

A.

Any other use necessary to benefit the public.

B.

A residential and/or commercial mixed use may be conditionally allowed as an accessory structure or use, in addition to a public use, if incidental and subordinate to the public use.

(Ord. 1286 § 1 (part), 2001)

(Ord. No. 1364, § 4, 5, 11-2-2016)

A residential and/or commercial accessory use may be allowed in the same structure or on the same lot or parcel as the public use, provided all applicable development standards and building code requirements for the nearest residential and/or commercial zone are met.
