19.5.2. USE CUSSIFICATION

A . U S E C L A S S I F I C A T I O N S

Use classifications organize land uses and activities Into general "use categories," and specific "use types" within the categories, based on common functional, product, or physical characteristics, such OS the type and amount of activity, the t ype of customers or housing types, how goods or services are sold or de l ivered, and site conditions. The use classifications prov ide a systematic basis for assigning present and future land uses into appropr ia te zoning districts. Use classifications describe one or more uses having similar chgrgcteristlcs, but do not list every use or activity that may appropr ia te ly be within the classification. The use classifications In each of the use tables Include: Residential Uses, Public/Institutional Uses, Commerciat Uses, and Industrial Uses. Accessory Uses and Temporary Uses ore addressed in Sections 19.5.7 and 19.5.8, respectively.

B. D E V E L O P M E N T S WITH MULT IPLE P R I N C I P A L U S E S

COMMENTARY:

For example, d devetopment that contains a bookstore, coffee shop, and bakery would be classified In ttie "Retail Sales and Service" category because all of the development's principal uses are in that use category.

W h e n al l principal uses of o bui lding fa l l within one use category, the entire bui lding Is assigned to that use category. When the principal uses of a development fa l l within d i f ferent use categories, each principal use Is classified in the appl icab le use category and

each use is subject to app l icab le regulations within that category. Developments with multiple principal uses, such as shopping centers, may include only those use types a l lowed in the base zoning district. For developments that meet the "shopping center" def ini t ion, park ing for uses may be cglculgted gt one space per 2 5 0 square feet .

1 . Procedure

W h e r e a part icular use t ype (principal, accessory, or temporary) is not specifically listed in this chapter, the Community Development Director may permit the use type upon f inding the standards of this subsection ore met in accordance with the procedure in Section 1 9.6.9.F, Interpretation. The Community Development Director shall g ive due consideration to the purpose and intent of this Code concerning the zoning district(s) involved, the character of the uses specifically ident i f ied, and the character of the use(s) in question. Any new use type may be incorporated into this Code through a Development Code text amendment in accordance with the procedure in Section 1 9.6.4.B.

2. Standards for A p p r o v i n g Unl isted Uses

In order to determine If the proposed use(s) has on impact that is similar in nature, function, and duration to the other use types a l lowed in a specific zoning district, the Community Development Director shall assess all relevant characteristics of the proposed use, including but not limited to the fo l lowing:

(a ) The volume and t ype of soles, retai l , wholesale, e t c ;

(b) The size and t ype of items sold and nature of inventory on the premises;

(c) Any processing done on the premises, including assembly, manufacturing, warehousing, shipping, distribution;

(d) Any dangerous, hazardous, toxic, or explosive materials used In the processing;
