§ 24-86. Interpretation of use.

It is the intent of this section to group similar or compatible land uses into specific zoning districts, either as permitted or conditional uses. Evaluation of uses shall be as follows:

(a)

The administrator shall determine if a use not listed is materially similar to a permitted or conditional use listed in the applicable district. Interpretations may be appealed to the board of adjustment per section 24-93.

(b)

Materially similar means the use provides a similar function, occurs within a similar structure or setting, and has a similar scale and impact to a permitted or conditional use listed.

(c)

Land uses deemed not to be materially similar to a permitted or conditional use shall be prohibited unless a variance is received (see section 24-92) or amendment to these regulations is made (see section 24-96).
