This chapter determines which land uses are allowed in each of the special purpose zoning districts established by Section 21.04.020 (Zoning districts established) of this title, what land use permit is required to establish each use, and the basic development standards that apply to allowed land uses in each district.
(Ord. 1308 § 5, 2000)
The purposes of the individual special purpose zoning districts and the manner in which they are applied are as follows:
(1) 
PI (Public Institutional) District. The PI zoning district is applied to areas suitable for public, civic, government, education, cultural or quasi-public services. The PI zoning district is consistent with the public facilities land use designation of the general plan.
(2) 
P/OS (Parks and Open Space) District. The P/OS zoning district is applied to areas appropriate for active and passive recreational uses, including parks and natural preservation areas. The P/OS zoning district is consistent with the parks and open space land use designation of the general plan.
(3) 
Specific Plan (SP) Zoning District. The SP zoning district is intended to address specific areas within the community that warrant a comprehensive set of land use policies and standards designed for the unique features of an area. The SP zoning district is consistent with the specific plan designation of the general plan.
Sites within the SP district shall be developed according to standards adopted within the applicable specific plan to address specific site constraints and opportunities, including buffering, traffic, noise and other land use compatibility impacts.
(Ord. 1308 § 5, 2000)
Table 2-8 identifies the uses of land allowed by this title in each special purpose zoning district, and the land use permit required to establish each use, in compliance with Section 21.06.030 (Allowable land uses and permit requirements) of this title.
Note: where the last column in the table ("Specific Use Regulations") includes a section number, the regulations in the referenced section apply to the use; however, provisions in other sections of this title may also apply.
