(A) Classification of uses. In the event of any question as to the appropriate use types of any existing or proposed use or activity, the Building Official shall have the authority to determine the appropriate use type. A determination of the Building Official may be appealed to the Board of Adjustment. In making such determinations, the Building Official and the Board of Adjustment shall consider the operational and physical characteristics of the use in question and shall consider such characteristics or specific requirements of the use in common with those included as examples of use types. Those examples, when included in use type descriptions, are intended to be illustrative, as opposed to exclusive lists.
(B) Records. The Building Official shall make all such determinations of appropriate use types in writing. The record of the determination shall contain a report explaining the reasons for the determination.
