(A) Intent: The SH Scenic Highway Districts are established to provide protection for designated highways and roads and to preserve the scenic and natural attributes on public and private land in Elko County. Included are all Federal, State highways and all paved County roads.
(B) Permitted Uses: All uses permitted in other districts designated in this Zoning Ordinance shall be permitted in the SH Districts, provided that the developer may first be required to obtain a use permit from the Planning Commission for the proposed use. The Elko County Building Inspector, Planning Advisor and County Manager may request such use permit when in their judgment the proposed use and/or improvements are sufficient to constitute a threat to scenic quality of highways, roadsides and scenic vistas. The Planning Commission will examine each proposal for its architectural character; the elements of its site planning; the accessibility to freeways, frontage roads and overpasses; the extent and design of street and curb cuts; signs; landscaping and other features which bear on the scenic quality of highways, roadsides and scenic vistas.
