§ 151.021 USES PERMITTED IN EACH ZONING DISTRICT.

(A) Organization of table. The table below organizes the principal uses by use classifications and principal uses.

(1) Use classifications. The use classifications provide a systematic basis for assigning present and future land uses into broad general classifications (e.g., detached residential, institutional, general merchandise). The use classifications then organize land uses and activities into specific principal uses based on common functional, product, or physical characteristics, such as the type and amount of activity, the type of customers or residents, how goods or services are sold or delivered, and site conditions.

(2) Listed principal uses. The table below lists the allowed types of principal uses. If a specific principal use is allowed “by right” in a district, the column underneath the district is marked with either an “X” or a number indexed to any applicable special conditions to the specific principal use found in the footnote to the table below or in § 151.024. If the principal use is not allowed in a district, the column is left blank. If there is a reference contained in a column entitled “CUP”, a conditional use permit is required for the principal use per the procedures outlined in § 151.310.

(3) Unlisted uses. The listing of permitted principal uses in a zoning district is not meant to be all-inclusive, nor is the list of uses that are not permitted intended to be all-inclusive. Uses not specifically listed shall be reviewed by the Town Planner to determine if the proposed use is similar in nature and character to others listed in the zoning district. The North American Industry Classification System manual, as amended, shall serve as a general guideline in making this determination. Based on the determination, the proposed use shall be classified in the same manner as those similar uses listed in terms of it being permitted “by right” or via a conditional use permit (CUP). The Town Planner may also determine that other uses are not permitted on the basis that they are not similar in nature or character to the other uses listed in the zoning district. Determinations by the Town Planner may be appealed to the Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) in accordance with § 151.308.

(B) Exemptions. The following are exempt from the regulations of § 151.021, as they are regulated by other provisions of the Zoning Ordinance.

(1) Accessory uses.

(2) Temporary uses.

X - Permitted by right CUP - Conditional use permit is required for the principal use per the procedures outlined in § 151.310

FOOTNOTES AND CONDITIONS:

1 This use is limited to:

(a) An accessory use related to an automobile dealership; or

(b) In the GC District, a stand-alone auto body repair and paint shops may be permitted as a conditional use with additional special conditions and specific standards established in § 151.024.

2 But not including electric transmission lines and major fuel transmission lines.

3 In the GI District, no exterior storage, display, or activity, except for customer parking and signage, is allowed.

4 Beauty or barber shops as home occupations are only permitted in the areas as regulated by § 151.025(D) and if a conditional use permit (CUP) is approved for the location.

5 All merchandise and equipment shall be stored or displayed within a completely enclosed building unless specifically authorized by § 151.025.

6 Not in conjunction with a place of worship.

7 All building materials must be stored in an enclosed structure or in a screened pursuant to § 151.025.

8 Bed and breakfast homestay uses are not considered customary home occupations as regulated by § 151.025; however, special conditions and specific standards are still applicable to this use as established in § 151.024.

9 All merchandise and motorcycle equipment shall either be displayed within a completely enclosed building or outdoors pursuant to § 151.025. No test-driving of motorcycles shall be permitted under any circumstances.

10 Within residential zone districts, support structures and associated appurtenances shall be restricted to municipal owned and/or leased properties, public/private utility owned properties, properties with a primary use that is institutional, or properties with a primary use as a landfill. Within institutional use or landfill use properties, support structures and associated appurtenances shall be restricted to self-supporting stealth design or camouflaged alternative designs that are mounted on or concealed within the principal structure subject to all requirements as provided in § 151.024(G). Within residential zone districts, attached antenna arrays may be permitted on previously approved institutional structures, municipal owned structures, public/private utility owned towers, and existing support structures, subject to all requirements as provided in § 151.024(G). Antennas on existing towers and structures may be approved administratively as provided in § 151.024(G)(6).

11 Within the TN or R-1 Zoning Districts, this use is only appropriate within Special Area 1 of the Downtown Collierville Small Area Plan. Although new contextual construction is possible, the primary purposing of allowing limited nonresidential uses in residential areas is to promote the adaptive reuse of existing historic structures and to buffer adjacent residential neighborhoods from more intensive nonresidential areas.

12 No outdoor display except as expressly permitted pursuant to § 151.025.

13 The transient occupancy of short-term rentals, as those terms are defined in § 151.003, are prohibited in each Zoning District noted above, including FAR, R-L, R-L1, R-25, R-1, R-1A, R-2, R-3, R-3A, R-4, R-TH, T, MPO, SCC, GC, RI, GI, CB, NC, MU, and TN.

14 No drive-through permitted.

15 Limited to ATM facilities located within a primary structure.

16 In the MPO District, no exterior activity is allowed and accessory uses cannot be a free-standing building.

17 Alleys and service drives shall be approved through the appropriate site plan or subdivision plat process prior to construction.

18 This use is only permitted for lots within an approved planned development.

19 Office uses in industrial areas are allowed only if adequate off-street parking is provided at a rate of one space per 300 square feet of building area. Because there may be limitations on the ability to discharge waste into the sewer system that could limit this use in industrial areas, prior to a Certificate of Occupancy this use in a RI or GI District, the property owner or tenant must obtain approval from the Public Services Department.

20 Reserved.

21 (a) Mixed use required. Residential uses shall be permitted only when part of a mixed use development (residential and permitted non-residential uses are located within the same structure).

(b) Location of dwelling units. Dwelling units shall be limited to the floor (or floors) above the ground floor. The ground floor, for the purposes hereof, shall mean the first floor or floor level of any structure above or on the same plane as the surface of the sidewalk and shall exclude basements or cellars, the floors of which are below the plane of the surface of the sidewalk. This standard is intended to reserve storefront space at the ground floor for permitted commercial and public/institutional uses.
