(a) It is the intent of this section to provide a flexible and adaptable zoning method through conditional zoning, whereby a zoning classification not otherwise provided for in the Zoning Code may be allowed subject to certain conditions, offered by the zoning applicant for the protection of the community, that are not generally applicable to land similarly zoned. Such conditions would restrict, not expand, the uses normally permitted by such zoning classification. No use which is prohibited in any zoning classification shall be permitted as conditional zoning.
(b) Conditional zoning may be applied in any district except residential districts.
(c) Conditional zoning is restricted to uses and projects not specifically authorized in any one zoning classification and shall not be used to permit in any zoning classification a use which is already specifically authorized in another zoning classification. For example, conditional zoning shall not be used to permit in a business use zoning classification any use which is specifically authorized in an industrial use zoning classification.
(d) Each application for conditional zoning shall be based upon the factual situation of the particular property and particular use for which the conditional zoning is applied. The granting of any specific application for any specific use shall not be deemed to be precedent or require the granting of conditional zoning for the same or a similar use for any other.
