§ 158.400 STATEMENT OF PURPOSE.
   This district is intended to provide land use compatibility along US 41A, more particularly described in the Special Use District (SUD) 41A District Map, being the same real property as annexed into the City of Hopkinsville boundaries by virtue of the adoption and enactment of Ord. 2-95, Ord. 18-96 and all subsequent annexations that are contiguous with the original the properties, said ordinances being incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth. The specific intent of this district is to ensure that land use compatibility is planned and maintained through an emphasis on proper design to preserve areas of productive farming, safeguard existing land uses and to prevent injurious effects on the adjacent properties. Furthermore, the intent of this district is to encourage design flexibility in order to capitalize on a site’s desirable features in ways that might be prohibited under conventional zoning while still accomplishing the primary purpose of this district. At the same time this district is intended to provide appropriate space, adequate parking, sufficient depth from U.S. 41A, controlled access points and orderly and planned development. All requirements of this subchapter shall apply to all subdivisions of land within this district after the adoption of this subchapter.
(Ord. 33-99, passed 11-2-1999; Ord. 32-2001, passed 11-20-2001)
