SPECIAL USES

§ 155.155 PURPOSE.

   The principal objective of the zoning code is to provide for an orderly arrangement of compatible buildings and land uses, and for the proper location of all types of uses required for the social and economic welfare of the city. To accomplish this objective, each type and kind of use is classified as permitted in one or more of the various districts established by this chapter. However, in addition to those uses specifically classified and permitted in each district, there are certain additional uses which it may be necessary to allow because of their unusual characteristics or the service they provide the public. These special uses require particular consideration as to their proper location in relation to adjacent established or intended uses, or to the planned development of the community. The conditions controlling the location and operation of such special uses are established by the following provisions of this subchapter.

('71 Code, § 11-22-1) (Ord. 1413, passed 9-13-60)

§ 155.156 CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL.

   The City Plan Commission may recommend, and the City Council may impose, such restrictions upon the height, bulk, and area of occupancy of any structure so approved for special use as may be reasonable under the particular circumstances, provided that such restrictions and stipulations shall not be more restrictive than the requirements established for the district in which such structure is proposed to be located, or as may be required in any municipal code. Off-street parking facilities as well as off-street loading and unloading spaces may also be stipulated in the order permitting to special use.
