A.
This chapter is intended to supplement specific zoning district descriptions and use definitions in an effort to characterize the nature of the basic four "use" classifications of residential, public-quasi-public, commercial and industrial. It should be noted that there is limited ability to mix different uses within a specific district (i.e., public/quasi public uses within a residential district, residential uses within a commercial district and commercial uses within an industrial district) but the use that is permitted or conditionally permitted must be operated and maintained in such a manner as to protect the viability and character of the primary district purpose.
B.
Use classifications describe one or more uses having similar characteristics, but do not list every use or activity that may appropriately be within the classification. The planning director shall determine whether a specific use shall be deemed to be within one or more use classifications or not within any classification in this title. The planning director may determine that a specific use shall not be deemed to be within a classification, whether or not named within the classification, if its characteristics are substantially incompatible with those typical of uses named within the classification.
