Certain types of uses require special consideration prior to their being permitted in a particular zone. The reasons for requiring such special consideration include, among others, the size of the area required for the full development of such uses, the nature of the traffic problems incidental to operation of the uses, and the effect such uses have on adjoining land uses and on the growth and development of the city as a whole. All uses permitted conditionally possess unique and special characteristics making impractical their inclusion as outright uses in many of the various zones herein defined. Location and operation of designated conditional uses shall be reasonably compatible with adjacent uses and authorized only by issuance of a conditional use permit.
