2.

Organization. The uses are grouped into general categories, which may contain lists of additional uses or clusters of uses.

(1)

Unlisted Similar Use. If a use is not listed but is similar in nature and impact to a use permitted within a zoning district, the Planning Commission may interpret the use as permitted. The unlisted use will be subject to any development standards applicable to the similar permitted use.

(2)

Unlisted Dissimilar Use. If a use is not listed and cannot be interpreted by the Planning Commission as similar in nature the use is not permitted.

3.

Use Table. Table 4.1 (1). Uses by District outlines the permitted uses in each zoning district. Each use is given one of the following designations for each zoning district in which that use is permitted.

(1)

Permitted ("●"). These uses are permitted by-right in the districts in which they are listed.

(2)

Permitted in Upper Stories Only ("◓"). These uses are permitted by-right in the districts in which they are listed, provided that the uses are located in the upper stories of a structure. These uses may also be located in the ground story provided that they are located beyond a depth of at least 30 feet from the front facade.

(3)

Permitted with Development Standards ("◐"). These uses are permitted by-right in the districts in which they are listed, provided that they are developed utilizing the listed development standards. These standards are intended to alleviate any negative impacts associated with the use, making it appropriate in a district where it otherwise might not have been appropriate.

Listed uses that are not permitted in the district are indicated by a blank space.

4.

Building Types. The uses permitted within the district may be further limited by the building types permitted. Refer to 5.0 Building Types.
