Sec. 8-2.905.   Table of Permit Requirements.
   The following Tables 8-2.905-1 and 8-2.905-2 lists the permit requirements for examples of each Use Type in each zoning district. Examples of Use Types are defined as "principal," "ancillary," or "accessory" uses which are allowed "by right" (with issuance of only a building permit after zoning clearance), or are allowed through issuance of a non-discretionary (no public hearing) Site Plan Review. Additional examples of Use Types are defined as "conditional uses" that are permitted through the issuance of a discretionary Minor or Major Use Permit, after a public hearing.
   Note that the tables do not include permit requirements for the Tribal Trust Overlay (TT-O) zone, since these lands are not subject to the zoning jurisdiction of Yolo County. Additionally, as already noted above, the tables do not include the Agricultural District Overlay (AD-O) zone, since the regulations for the one AD-O zone that has been adopted for the Clarksburg area, are included in Section 8-2.401 in Article 4 of this chapter. The tables also do not include permit requirements for the Special Building (B) overlay zone, since that overlay zone only affects minimum parcel size, not permitted uses.

*   An “allowed use” does not require a zoning or land use permit, but is still subject to permit requirements of other Yolo County divisions such as Building, Environmental Health, and Public Works.
Notes:
(1)   In the S-P zones, permit requirements in this table are for interim uses allowed prior to adoption of a Specific Plan, after which all proposed uses and permit requirements must be consistent with the adopted plan. See Sec. 8-2.906(c).
(2)   Additional requirements for a rezoning to a PD zone are included in Sec. 8-2.906(a). For PD zones, permit requirements in this table are for interim agricultural uses allowed prior to urban development or completion of urban development. All proposed non-agricultural uses and permit requirements must be consistent with the individual adopted PD regulations. See Sec. 8-2.906(c).
(3)   In the NH-O zones, prior to adoption of a Natural Heritage Plan, agricultural uses are allowed according to the underlying base zone. After adoption of a Natural Heritage Plan, all proposed uses and permit requirements must be consistent with the adopted plan.

*   An "allowed use" does not require a zoning or land use permit, but is still subject to permit requirements of other Yolo County divisions such as Building, Environmental Health, and Public Works.
Notes:
(1)   See Sec. 8-2.906(f). All uses must be consistent with the Land Use and Resource Management Plan adopted by the Delta Protection Commission.
(2)   See Sec. 8-2.906(g). All uses must be consistent with the Cache Creek Specific Plan and associated policies and regulations. Also see Sec. 8-2.906(f) and Title 10.
(3)   See Sec. 8-2.906(h). All uses must be consistent with the Comprehensive Land Use Plans (CLUPs) for the County Airport, Watts-Woodland, or Borges Airports. California Public Utilities Code Section 21659 governs the allowable height of structures and vegetation in the A-O zone.
