[R.O. 2008 §280.208]
In interpreting and applying the provisions of this Chapter,
such provisions shall be held to be the minimum requirements for the
promotion of the public safety, health, convenience, comfort, prosperity
or general welfare. It is not intended by this Chapter to interfere
with or abrogate or annul any easements, covenants or other agreements
between parties; provided however, that where this Chapter imposes
a greater restriction upon the use of buildings or premises or upon
height of buildings or requires larger open spaces than are imposed
or required by other ordinances, rules, regulations or by easements,
covenants or agreements, the provisions of this Chapter shall govern.
[R.O. 2008 §280.210; Ord. No. 1731 §8, 2-11-1992]
Unless the contrary is clear from the context, uses not specifically
listed are prohibited.
[R.O. 2008 §280.212; Ord. No. 1731 §8, 2-11-1992]
The Sections, paragraphs, sentences, clauses and phrases of
this Chapter shall be severable. If any Section, paragraph, sentence,
clause or phrase of this Chapter shall be found by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid, the remaining Sections, paragraphs, sentences,
clauses and phrases of this Chapter shall remain valid, unless the
court finds the valid Sections, paragraphs, sentences, clauses and
phrases of this Chapter are so essential and inseparably connected
with and dependent upon the void Section, paragraph, sentence, clause
or phrase that it cannot be presumed that the City Council would have
enacted the valid portions without the invalid portion or unless the
court finds that the valid Sections, paragraphs, sentences, clauses
and phrases of this zoning ordinance standing alone are incomplete
and are incapable of being executed in accordance with the legislative
intent.
