[Ord. No. 2000-46 §1(10-00), 4-10-2000]
The purpose of the "MU" Multiple Use Zone District shall be
to permit older, distressed areas of the community to redevelop by
allowing land use arrangements that are well planned, well designed
and compatible with one another, but which arrangements may exhibit
more flexibility that is permitted elsewhere in the City. This district
will typically be in an older neighborhood alongside railroad tracks
or other corridors, where existing land uses already exhibit a mixture
of land used including residential, commercial, public and/or light
industrial. The "MU" District is not intended for use in promoting
spot zoning outside of the original intended older neighborhoods in
the City.
[Ord. No. 2000-46 §1(10-01), 4-10-2000]
A.
The
following land uses are permitted in the "MU" Mixed Use District:
1.
Public elementary and high schools supported in whole or in part
from public funds and private schools maintained primarily for the
giving of general elementary or high school academic institutions,
which children between the ages of five (5) and eighteen (18) years
of age may legally attend in lieu of compulsory attendance upon a
public full-time day school.
2.
Single-family and two-family residences, condos, manufactured homes
as defined herein.
3.
General commercial establishments, provided such uses do not create
nuisances related to excessive parking requirements on street, excessive
noise, congestion or are at a scale which, in the opinion of the Zoning
Administrator, is out of harmony with the surrounding character of
the neighborhood.
4.
Light industrial uses, provided that they do not create excessive
on-street parking demands, are not out of scale with the neighborhood,
do not create excessive noise, dust, odors, vibration, glare of lights
and are less than ten thousand (10,000) square feet in production
floor space size.
5.
Warehouses for the storage of non-hazardous materials, with "hazardous" as defined by Title III of the Federal Environmental
Protection and Community Right-To-Know Act of 1991, as amended.
6.
Museums, libraries, parks, playgrounds or commercial centers publicly
operated.
7.
Greenhouses for the planting, growing and harvest of crops, shrubs
or other horticultural product of value.
8.
Child day care centers, provided that surrounding land uses are compatible,
in the opinion of the Zoning Administrator.
9.
Churches or other establishments primarily devoted to religious worship.
[Ord. No. 2000-46 §1(10-02), 4-10-2000]
Customary accessory uses are permitted, providing such uses
are clearly and directly incidental to the principal uses, as interpreted
by the Zoning Administrator.
