All property in the City has been placed in one of the basic districts created for the purpose of establishing the general pattern of intended land use consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
Overlay or "floating" districts are also established which provide for the possibility of superimposing upon a basic district certain additional permissive uses and regulatory standards applicable thereto without disturbing the underlying basic district regulations. The basic intent is similar to that upon which conditional use grants are premised and in effect represents the granting of specifically defined special use rights in specifically defined areas.
A. 
For convenience and readability, the uses as permitted in each district and the supplementary regulations thereto are presented in a summary tabular form consisting of the following:
(1) 
A statement of intent interpreting the intended purpose of the specific district classification.
(2) 
A list of permitted uses.
(3) 
Special regulations which apply to that district.
B. 
A summary tabulation of the specific numeric requirements of the provisions of this chapter made applicable to the various districts is provided.[1] In the case of an overlay district, the requirements listed apply to the uses permitted by virtue of the overlay and do not alter the application of the underlying district regulations to the uses permitted therein.
