In order to provide for the most appropriate use of land throughout the district and giving the maximum consideration to the character of the district and its peculiar suitability for particular uses in the area affected by this chapter, special exceptions in the form of conditional uses are hereby established.
(Ord. passed - -2000)
The City Council may, by special permit after referral to and recommendation from the Planning Commission and public hearing as described in § 153.340, authorize the establishment of special exceptions in the form of conditional uses designated in the district regulations if it is found that the location and characteristics of the use will not be injurious to the health, safety, morals, and general welfare of the area.
(Ord. passed - -2000)
(A) The conditional uses shall conform to the intent and purpose of this chapter and the following requirements.
(1) The use shall in all other respects conform to the applicable regulations of the district in which it is located.
(2) The use shall conform to all other applicable ordinances, laws, and regulations of any governmental jurisdiction.
(3) The use shall have adequate water, sewer, and drainage facilities approved by the Board of Trustees.
(4) Ingress and egress shall be so designed as to minimize traffic congestion on the public streets.
(5) The use shall be in harmony with the character of the area and the most appropriate use of land.
(6) The proposed conditional use will not cause substantial injury to the value of other property in the neighborhood in which it is to be located.
(7) The location and size of the conditional use, the nature and intensity of the operation involved in or conducted in connection with it and the location of the site with respect to streets giving access to the use are such that the conditional use will not dominate the immediate neighborhood so as to prevent development and the use of neighboring property in accordance with the applicable zoning district regulations.
(B) The City Council and the Planning Commission in considering an application for a conditional use may consider, among other things, the most appropriate use of the land; the conservation and stabilization of the value of property; adequate open space for light and air; concentration of population; congestion of public streets; and the promotion of public safety, health, convenience, and comfort. The City Council may stipulate and require the conditions and restrictions upon the conditional use and operation deemed necessary for the protection of the public interest and to secure compliance with this chapter.
(Ord. passed - -2000)
(A) A conditional use permit may not be transferred and, if a change of ownership of the lot or tract of land for which the conditional use permit was issued occurs, the conditional use permit shall terminate. The new owners shall have to apply for their own conditional use permit.
(B) Any conditional use wanting to expand the use shall apply for an additional conditional use permit for the expansion.
