§ 5.1. USE TABLES

5.1.1.   Purpose

The purpose of the use tables in this Chapter are to summarize what uses may be made of lots, tracts or parcels within each base zoning district in conformance with the requirements of this Code.

5.1.2.   Types of Uses and Limit on the Number of Uses per Lot or Parcel

Each base zoning district regulates land uses as either a principal use or an accessory use. Only one principal use is allowed per lot or parcel, except in the A-35 zoning district and in commercial and industrial zoning districts where more than one principal use may be established subject to the requirements and limitations of this Code, or where special use approval or variance of use approval has authorized additional uses. An accessory use requires that a principal use is established on the same lot or parcel as the accessory use before the accessory use is established and that the principal use continue on the lot or parcel so long as the accessory use continues, unless otherwise provided by this Code. Multiple accessory uses may be allowed on a lot or parcel subject to the requirements and limitations of this Code.

5.1.3.   Principal Use Table Described

Principal uses are organized into three categories for purpose of regulation: allowed uses, special uses, and temporary uses. Table 5-1 identifies principal uses which may be located on a lot or parcel in each base zoning district. Base zoning districts are shown on the horizontal axis and specific uses or categories of land uses are shown on the vertical axis. The following symbols shall be used to interpret the list of uses and means by which they may be located on a lot or parcel within each base zoning district:

• If the symbol "A" appears in the box at the intersection of the column and row, the use is allowed subject to applicable development standards (Chapter 6), use and dimensional standards (Chapter 5) and other applicable provisions of this Code, (including site plan or site development plan approval, if a building or other development permit is required).

• If the symbol "S" appears in the box at the intersection of the column and the row, the use is allowed subject to the Special Use provisions of this Code and to applicable development standards (Chapter 6), use and dimensional standards (Chapter 5) and other applicable provisions of this Code, (including site plan or site development plan approval, if a building or other development permit is required).

• If the symbol "T" appears in the box at the intersection of the column and the row, the use is allowed subject to the Temporary Use provisions of this Code and to applicable development standards (Chapter 6), use and dimensional standards (Chapter 5) and other applicable provisions of this Code, (including site plan or site development plan approval, if a building or other development permit is required). If no symbol appears in the box at the intersection of the column and the row, the use is not allowed as a principal use in that zoning district. The table also identifies whether or not specific use standards are provided for the use in this Code and whether a site plan review or site development plan review shall be approved prior to establishing the use.

5.1.4.   Accessory Use Table Described

Table 5-2 identifies accessory uses which may be located on a lot or parcel within each base zoning district. Base zoning districts are shown on the horizontal axis and specific accessory uses or categories of accessory land uses are shown on the vertical axis. The following symbols shall be used to interpret the list of accessory uses and means by which they may be located on a lot or parcel within each base zoning district:

• If the symbol "A" appears in the box at the intersection of the column and row, the use is allowed subject to the Accessory Use provisions of this Code and to applicable development standards (Chapter 6), use and dimensional standards (Chapter 5) and other applicable provisions of this Code, (including site plan or site development plan approval, if a building or other development permit is required).

• If no symbol appears in the box at the intersection of the column and the row, the use is not allowed as an accessory use in that zoning district.

The table also identifies whether or not specific use standards are provided for the use in this Code and whether a site plan review or site development plan review shall be approved prior to establishing the use.

5.1.5.   Applicability of Multiple Use Types

The specific use shall control the general use.

5.1.6.   Unlisted Uses

The PCD Director is authorized to classify any unlisted use based on similar uses. If no similar use can be identified by the PCD Director, the PCD Director may initiate an amendment to the text of this Code to clarify where the unlisted use is allowed, or the applicant for an unlisted use may file an application to amend this Code following the prescribed procedures.
