The purpose of this chapter is to classify land uses according

(Ord. 5428 § 1, 2014)
A. Primary Uses. Primary uses shall be defined as either principal,
conditional, or administrative uses. A principally permitted use is
allowed in a zoning district and subject to the restrictions applicable

in a particular zone district upon showing that such use will comply
with all the conditions and standards as specified in the zoning ordinance
and authorized in the Conditional Use Permit. An administratively
permitted use may be permitted in a zone district upon administrative
approval by the Planning Manager. Primary uses are established and
regulated by this article.
B. Accessory Uses. Accessory uses are uses accessory and incidental to the primary use of a parcel and are regulated by Chapter
19.22 (Accessory Uses and Structures).
(Ord. 5428 § 1, 2014)

distinct primary use of that parcel.
B. Separate Classification of Different Major Categories of Uses Conducted
by Individual Establishment. If an individual establishment,
or business conducts more than one primary use, which use appears
to fit under more than one different use type as described in this

of one of the following listed use types, all such primary uses shall
be classified as one of the use types on the list:
2. Hazardous
materials handling; or
3. Intensive
public facilities.
If the primary uses resemble more than one of the use types on the above list, the uses shall be classified in the most appropriate use type, except that any industrial uses shall be classified within the hazardous materials handling use type if they so qualify under Section 19.08.100(D) (Hazardous materials handling use type).

(Ord. 5428 § 1, 2014)
If a proposed primary use is not specifically listed or identified
as a use type in this article, the use shall not be allowed, except

19.08 listed as a permitted use type within the zoning district;
2. The
proposed use is compatible with the purpose of the zoning district
that applies to the parcel; and
3. The
proposed use will be consistent with the goals, objectives and policies
of the General Plan.
B. If
the Planning Manager determines that an unlisted proposed use is encompassed
within a listed use type, the proposed use shall be subject to the
same use regulations as the listed use type.
C. The Planning Manager may forward questions about permitted uses directly to the Planning Commission for an interpretation at a public hearing. The public hearing shall be scheduled as required in Chapter
19.80 for an appeal. The Planning Commission shall make a determination based on the criteria of subsection
A as to which use type the proposed use fits into. The decision of the Planning Commission may be appealed to the Council pursuant to Chapter
