11-11-1: PURPOSES:
   A.   The City Council may, after a public hearing and recommendation by the Planning Commission, authorize for specific parcels of land, the issuance of a Specific Use Permit.
   B.   The uses listed in the Specific Use List located in 11-11-3, as well as other uses outlined in the Poteau Municipal Code as requiring a Specific Use Permit, are so classified because of the size of the land they require or the specialized nature of the use, they may more intensely dominate the area in which they are located, or their effects on the general public are broader in scope than other types of uses permitted in the district.
   C.   The designation of a Specific Use Permit as possible on the Specific Use Permit List does not constitute an authorization or an assurance that such use will be permitted. Rather, each Specific Use Permit application shall be valued as to its probable effect on the adjacent property and community welfare and may be approved or denied, with appropriate conditions, as the findings indicate appropriate.
