A. The land use tables in this chapter determine whether a specific use is allowed in a zone classification. Specific uses are divided among 17 tables, each of which represents a broad category of land use. The tables are arranged in alphabetical order by land use category, as listed at the beginning of this chapter. Within each table, zone classifications are located in vertical columns and specific uses are arranged alphabetically in horizontal rows.

B. If no symbol appears in the box at the intersection of a column and a row, the use is not allowed in that zoning classification.

C. If the letter “P,” for “Permitted,” appears in the box at the intersection of a column and a row, the use is allowed in that classification, subject to the development and operational requirements of this and other applicable titles. The conduct or development of a permitted use may require approvals including but not limited to land clearing, grading, plumbing, mechanical and building permits. The procedures for applying for such approvals shall be as set forth in BMC Title 11, Administration of Development Regulations.

D. If the letter “C,” for “Conditional,” appears in the box at the intersection of a column and a row, the use is allowed subject to conditional use permit procedures and requirements and other development and operational requirements of this and other applicable titles. The conduct or development of a conditional use shall require approval of a conditional use permit in addition to other approvals as set forth in subsection C of this section. Procedures for applying for a conditional use permit shall be as set forth in Chapter 12.28 BMC and BMC Title 11, Administration of Development Regulations.

E. If a number appears in the box describing the use, or in the box at the intersection of a column and a row, the use is subject to specific development and/or operational requirements which may be in addition to or in place of general requirements of this and other applicable titles. Such use-specific requirements typically follow the table and correspond to the number in the table, although some such requirements, such as those for specialized senior housing, are set forth in separate chapters.

F. Where multiple zoning classifications are combined (e.g., OP, LI), the most permissive land use regulations of the individual zoning classifications shall apply, unless specifically provided otherwise or as stipulated within a subarea regulation. For example, if a use is not permitted in the OP zone but is permitted in the LI zone, the use is permitted on land zoned OP, LI.

G. Any proposed use not listed in the table shall be classified by the community development director as permitted, conditional, or not permitted, based on the listed use to which the proposed use is most similar. If the community development director determines that the proposed use is not similar to any use in the table, the proposed use shall not be permitted. The determination of the community development director shall be appealable to the hearing body.

H. Permitted uses as established by this chapter may be modified by subarea regulations. (Ord. 2353 § 7, 2021; Ord. 1946 § 2, 2005; Ord. 1815 § 1, 2000; Ord. 1685, 1997; Ord. 1629 § 1, 1996).
