Building types regulate the form of development allowed within each zone. Uses allowed within any building type are determined by the uses allowed within the zone under Section 3.1.6; the building type does not determine use. The building type only determines the applicable development standards. All graphic depictions of building types are for illustrative purposes only and are not meant to limit or exclude other designs.
