§ 156.021 LAND USES.

(A) Land uses specified. Each land use is either a permitted, non-permitted or a special exception use in each zoning district. A general list of permitted and special exception uses for each district are noted in the Permitted Uses and Special Exceptions divisions accompanying the description of each district in this subchapter. The graphics that accompany the descriptions of each land use are to be considered representative and not to scale. Specific land uses are also listed in the Land Use Matrix following division (B) below. The designation of special exception is not meant to imply that the use in question will be disallowed, only that they will be reviewed and checked for conformance with county standards and will require a public hearing.

(B) Unlisted or questionable land uses. Any use not listed as a permitted use or special exception use is considered non-permitted. The Planning Director may determine into which category any use is placed if it is not specifically listed but is similar to another use that is a permitted or a special exception use. This determination may be appealed to the Board of Zoning Appeals consistent with the provisions of § 156.104.
