19.26.030 Schedule Of Permitted Uses

  1. Schedule of Permitted Uses. The specific uses listed in the following schedule are permitted in the zones as indicated, subject to the general provisions, special conditions, additional restrictions, and exceptions set forth in this Title. Special use conditions can be found in Chapter 19.42 Specific Use Standards for permanent uses and Chapter 19.44 for temporary uses.
  2. Procedure for Multiple Uses (Combination of Uses). If a development proposal involves a combination of uses other than accessory uses as identified in Table 19.26.030, the more restrictive provisions of this Title shall apply. For example, if a portion of a development is subject to conditional use (“C”) approval and the other portion is subject only to permitted use (“P”) review, the entire development is reviewed and approved by the conditional use process.
  3. Abbreviations. The abbreviations used in the schedule mean:
    1. P = Permitted Use. This use is allowed in the zone but may be subject to additional restrictions and approval processes as provided in this Title.
    2. C = Conditional Use. This use is conditional because of the unique characteristics or potential impacts on the municipality, surrounding neighbors, or adjacent uses, incompatibility in some areas of the zone, or compatibility only if special provisions or conditions are required to mitigate the detrimental impacts of the use. The Planning Commission is the land use authority for uses with this designation.
    3. X = Prohibited Use. This use is prohibited in this zone. Any use not specifically identified in Table 19.26.030 is prohibited in this zone.
