This chapter lists the land uses that may be allowed within primarily public zoning districts established by Section 9-3.102 (Zoning Districts), determines the type of planning permit/approval required for each use, and provides basic lot size and development standards for specific zones.
(Ord. 602 § 2, 2016)
The purposes of the individual public zoning districts and the manner in which they are applied are as follows:
(a) 
L (Recreation) Zoning District. This zone is established to provide suitable locations and standards for the development of recreational facilities accommodating the needs of the general public.
(b) 
LS (Special Recreation) Zoning District. This zone is established to provide suitable locations and standards for the development of recreational facilities on land in private ownership. This zone also provides for residential and agricultural uses where intensive recreational activity may not be appropriate.
(c) 
P (Public) Zoning District. This zone is established to provide suitable locations and standards for the maintenance and development of public and quasi-public facilities and services.
(d) 
OS (Open Space) Zoning District. This zone is established to cover areas with environmentally sensitive natural or cultural resources and generally is intended to remain free of structures but may be developed with low intensity recreational improvements, where appropriate.
(Ord. 602 § 2, 2016)
Table 3-3 identifies the uses of land allowed this Zoning Code in each public district, and the planning permit required to establish each use, in compliance with Chapters 9-1 and 9-2 of this code. Where the last column in the tables ("Specific Use Regulations") includes a section number, the regulations in the referenced section apply to the use. Provisions in other sections of this article may also apply.
