10-17-1: PURPOSE:
   A.   The purpose of requiring administrative approval of certain enumerated uses is to determine whether or not, in any particular case, a use listed under provisions in the district regulations entitled "Permitted Uses Requiring Administrative Approval" should be treated as a conditional use because of the peculiar circumstances and conditions of the case. This chapter sets forth the procedure for approval of such use by an administrative act where findings can be made that such use is in conformance with the intent and provisions of the district regulations and other applicable regulations of this title. The provisions of this chapter take cognizance of the impracticality of listing certain uses as categorically possessing the characteristics of those uses listed under either the permitted uses or conditional uses sections of the various districts provided in this title.
   B.   Except as provided in section 10-17-7 of this chapter, the provisions of sections 10-17-1 through 10-17-6 shall apply to all uses listed as permitted uses subject to administrative approval.
   C.   As a matter of policy, any use listed as subject to administrative approval shall be considered as if it were a permitted use in the district where listed unless otherwise found to require modifications under the review procedures provided in this chapter. (Ord. 622, 9-2-1980)
