This code divides the entire city into zoning districts, and in each district there are mutually compatible uses which are permitted. The code recognizes, however, that other uses may be necessary or desirable, but their potential influence on permitted uses could be harmful. For this reason, they are classed as special uses and may be permitted only under certain conditions. These special uses may be public or private uses. If a use is not listed as a special use within the zoning district, then an amendment shall be required.
