The City recognizes that new types of land use will develop and forms of land use not anticipated in this Code may seek to locate in the City. When application is made for a use category or use type that is not specifically listed in Table 9-4-170, the City Manager shall make a determination as to the appropriate classification of any new or unlisted form of land use in the following manner:
(a) The City Manager shall provide an interpretation as to the zoning classification into which such use should be placed. In making such interpretation, the City Manager shall consider the nature of the use and whether it involves dwelling activity; sales; processing; type of product, storage and amount, and nature thereof; enclosed or open storage; anticipated employment; transportation requirements; the amount of noise, odor, fumes, dust, toxic material, and vibration likely to be generated; and the general requirements for public utilities such as water and sanitary sewer.
(b) Standards for new and unlisted uses may be interpreted as those of a similar use.
(c) Appeal of the City Manager's decision may be made to the Board of Adjustments following procedures under §9-3-130, Appeals.
