A. 
Purpose. Conditional use provisions apply to all uses identified as conditional uses in the tables of authorized uses (principal and accessory).[1] The conditional use approval process is designed to allow the Borough Council to review and approve certain uses that may have additional impacts on the community and the environment beyond those typical for uses that are allowed by right. The intent is to allow certain specified uses identified as conditional uses in the tables of authorized uses (principal and accessory) to be reviewed by the Borough Council so that they may determine compliance with this chapter and attach reasonable conditions and safeguards, in addition to the standards and criteria expressed in this chapter as the Borough Council may deem necessary to implement the purposes of this chapter.
