(A) Conditionally permitted uses are those uses which have a particular impact on the surrounding area that cannot be predetermined and controlled by general regulations. In order to insure that these uses in their proposed locations will be compatible with surrounding development, their establishment shall not be a matter of right but may be permitted after review and approval as hereinafter provided.
(B) This consideration of conditional uses is particularly important. In recent years, the characteristics and impacts of an ever-increasing number of new and unique uses, together with the broadening of numerous conventional uses, have fostered the development of more flexible regulations designed to accommodate these activities in a reasonable and equitable manner, while safeguarding both the property rights of all individuals and the health, safety, and general welfare of the community. Toward these ends, it is recognized that this Zoning Code should provide for more detailed evaluation of each use listed as a conditional use in a specific district with respect to such considerations as location, design, size, method(s) of operation, intensity of use, requirements for public facilities, and traffic generation. Accordingly, conditional use permits shall conform to the procedures and requirements of Chapter 150.16.
