Uses designated in the land use matrix as Zoning Administrator (ZA), Planning Commission (PC) and County Commissioners (CC) are conditional uses that require special consideration by the land use authority. The purpose of this subchapter is to allow the most appropriate level of land use authority to evaluate the reasonable conditions to mitigate potential negative effects of the proposed use on a case-by-case situation. The conditional use permit process allows the Zoning Administrator (ZA), the Planning Commission (PC) or the County Commission (CC) to approve, conditionally approve or deny requests for a conditional use permit. All permits shall begin with the Zoning Administrator (ZA), and progress to the level listed below before the permit is issued. If a use is permitted (P) within a certain zone, no approval is needed from the county to carry out that use, excluding potential building inspection or Health Department approvals and the like. Uses which are not specifically permitted within a zone are prohibited (N).
