Walterboro City Zoning Code

SECTION 2

1 - Interpretation

2.1.1 - Use Interpretation

A.

Each zoning district has uses permitted by right, conditional uses, and special exception uses. Lists are shown for each district placing uses under one of the three categories. Uses not expressly permitted are prohibited. The following describes the processes of each of the three categories that the uses are subject to:

1.

Uses Permitted by Right: Administrative review and approval subject to district provisions and other applicable requirements only.

2.

Conditional Uses: Administrative review and approval subject to district provisions, other applicable requirements, and conditions outlined in Chapter 3.

3.

Special Exceptions: Board of Zoning Appeals review and approval in accordance with Section 11.3, subject to district provisions, other applicable requirements, and conditions of approval. Some Special Exceptions may also be subject to conditions outlined in Chapter 3.

B.

A mix of two (2) or more uses on the same lot of record is permitted as long as both uses are listed as permitted within the zoning district. The requirements for the most restricted use shall apply. For example, if "Use A" is permitted by right and "Use B" is permitted with a Special Exception, then the property requires a Special Exception.

2.1.2 - Interpretation of District Boundaries

The boundaries between Districts are, unless otherwise noted, either the center line of streets or streams, rights-of-way, lot or tract lines, city limits, or such lines extended. Disputes over district boundaries shall be settled by the Board of Zoning Appeals.
