This section establishes and describes the use classification system used to categorize principal uses in this zoning ordinance.

(A)

Use groups. This zoning ordinance classifies principal land uses into major groupings (described in section 6.02(D)(1) through section 6.08). These major groupings are referred to as "use groups." The groups are as follows:

(1)

Residential. See section 6.03.

(2)

Commercial. See section 6.04.

(3)

Warehouse and distribution. See section 6.05.

(4)

Manufacturing and industry. See section 6.06.

(5)

Public and institutional. See section 6.07.

(6)

Other. See section 6.08.

(B)

Use categories. Each use group is further divided into more specific "use categories." Use categories 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 typical site conditions.

(C)

Use subcategories. Some use categories are further broken down to identify more specific "use subcategories."

(D)

Classification of uses.

(1)

General authority. The zoning administrator is authorized to classify uses on the basis of the use group, category, and subcategory descriptions of this article. When a use cannot be readily classified into a use group, category, or subcategory, the zoning administrator is authorized to determine the most similar and thus most appropriate use group, category, or subcategory based on the actual or projected characteristics of the principal use or activity in relationship to the use group, category, and subcategory descriptions provided in this article. The zoning administrator is also authorized to refer the similar use determination to the planning and zoning commission for a decision. In making similar use determinations, decision-making bodies 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.

(2)

Hybrid uses. When the use of a property involves multiple principal uses, the zoning administrator is authorized to categorize each separate principal use in the group, category, or subcategory that provides the most exact, narrowest and appropriate "fit." Such "hybrid" uses are allowed only when the zoning of the subject property allows all the principal uses occurring on the property.
