[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General Provisions, Art. II)]
A. 
The formulation and enactment of a comprehensive zoning ordinance is based on the division of the entire City into districts in each of which are permitted specified uses that are mutually compatible.
B. 
In addition to such permitted compatible uses, it is recognized that there are other uses which it may be necessary or desirable to allow in a given district, but which, because of their potential influence upon neighboring uses or public facilities, need to be carefully regulated with respect to location or operation for the protection of the community. Such uses are classified in this chapter as "conditional uses" and fall into three categories:
(1) 
Uses which are either municipally operated or operated by publicly regulated utilities.
(2) 
Uses entirely private in character, which, because of their peculiar locational need, the nature of the service they offer to the public, and their possible damaging influence on the neighborhood, may have to be established in a district or districts in which they cannot reasonably be allowed as an unrestricted permitted use under the zoning regulations.
(3) 
Nonconforming uses which, as "conditional uses" can be made more compatible with their surroundings.
[Amended 8-29-1988 by Ord. No. 884; 8-29-1988 by Ord. No. 885; 12-12-1996 by Ord. No. 1013; 1-22-1997 by Ord. No. 938; 12-12-2006 by Ord. No. 1013]
