[Amended by Ord. No. 96-1; Ord. 98-14; Ord. No. 99-4; Ord. 03-06; Ord. No. 03-25]
A.
In order to carry out the provisions of this chapter,
the City is hereby divided into the following basic zoning districts
determined by actual development conditions existing at the time of
adoption of this chapter (September 12, 1984):
(1)
Established (E) — areas where the character
of development is stable and few changes are anticipated or encouraged.
(2)
Developing (D) — areas where most land is from
vacant or rural use to urban use and densities.
(3)
Redeveloping (R) — areas where many buildings
and uses are likely to be rehabilitated or replaced, or the character
of the area could change and such action is to be encouraged.
B.
The purpose of the three basic zoning districts is
to recognize that areas of the City are in various stages of development,
therefore calling for different degrees and emphasis in land use control.
It is intended that the boundaries of the basic zoning districts shown
on the zoning map, adopted contemporaneously herewith, will not usually
be changed. It is further intended that the only anticipated change
in basic zoning district boundaries will be from established or developing
district to a redeveloping district, and such change would be justified
only where it is demonstrated that the character of an area has so
changed that its redevelopment is necessary and in the public interest.
D.
For more definitive use separation and for distinction
by control of density, the basic zoning districts and use districts
are further subdivided into the following specific zoning districts:
(1)
Established districts (E).
|
Rural residential (RR-E) - areas which are primarily
used for single unit residential in a "rural" setting on large lots.
| |
|
Low density residential (LR-E) - an area which
is used for single-unit residential development on lots ranging from
six thousand square feet minimum but less than one-half acre.
| |
|
Low density residential .5 (LR-E.5) - an area
which is used for single unit residential development on lots ranging
from one-half acre minimum but less than one acre.
| |
|
Medium density residential (MR-E) - areas which
are primarily used for or permit single-family residential and multiunit
development at duplex, triplex or townhouse densities.
| |
|
High density residential (HR-E) - areas which
are primarily used for or permit multi-unit residential development
at apartment densities.
| |
|
Neighborhood business (NB-E) - areas with convenience
retail services typified by quick service serving a single neighborhood
or two at most.
| |
|
Community business (CB-E) - community centers
serving two or more neighborhoods, where retail-type stores predominate,
anchored by a supermarket-type store.
| |
|

market area where a wide range of retail and commercial operations
are permitted, including the largest regional-scale businesses.
| |
|
Industrial (I-E) - industrial areas which were
existing when this code was adopted, primarily developed for processing,
storage, manufacturing and commercial uses.
| |
|
Agricultural (A-E) - areas in a natural state
or in which the growing of crops, flowers, trees or other similar
farming or ranching activity is practiced.
| |
|
Public (P-E) - areas in which public and semi-public
facilities and uses are located, including governmental and educational
uses.
|
(2)
Developing districts (D).
|
Low density residential (LR-D) - areas which
will be primarily developed for low-density residential uses, with
complementary uses permitted under certain conditions.
| |
|
Low density residential mixed (LR-M) - an area
which is used for single-unit residential development, including single
family dwellings and manufactured homes, on lots ranging from six
thousand square feet minimum but less than one-half acre.
| |
|
Low density residential mixed .5 (LR-M.5) -
an area which is used for single-unit residential development, including
single family dwellings and manufactured homes, on lots ranging from
one-half acre minimum but less than one acre.
| |
|
Medium density residential (MR-D) - areas which
will be primarily developed at single-family residential and multiunit
residential densities, and where attached dwelling units and compatible
uses to serve the area will be encouraged with complementary uses
permitted under certain conditions.
| |
|
High density residential (HR-D) - areas which
will be primarily developed at high-intensity residential and apartment
densities, with complementary uses permitted under certain conditions.
| |
|

primarily developed for limited, environmentally-controlled manufacturing
or intensive employment uses in an industrial park setting.
| |
|
Heavy industrial (HI-D) - areas which will primarily
be used for outdoor storage, heavy equipment storage and other types
of industrial uses not compatible with residential neighborhoods.
| |
|
Transitional (T-D) - areas adjacent to a commercial
district which allow for single family homes and for the adaptive
reuse of existing residential structures for business purposes. Existing
structures may be renovated or modified, but shall not be replaced
with a new building for a business.

products but excluding basic industrial processing which involves
the processing of raw materials. All uses shall be conducted inside
an enclosed building. Any noise, vibration, smoke, vapor, dust, fumes,
odor, glare, or other environmental contamination produced by such
uses shall be confined to the lot upon which such uses are located
and controlled in accordance with applicable local, state and federal
law, rules and regulations.
| |
|
Medium density residential (MR-R) - areas which
are in the process of changing from existing development to a primary
use of multi-unit residential units or mobile homes where each unit
usually has direct access at ground level.
| |
|
High density residential (HR-R) - areas which
are in the process of changing from low density development to multi-family
unit apartments.
| |
|
Office (O-R) - areas primarily devoted to office
buildings or transition areas that are moving from residential use
to conversion of the buildings to office uses as a buffer between
business or traffic areas and residential areas.
| |
|
Highway business (HB-R) - areas in the process
of changing from existing mixed development to serve the traveling
public as well as local residents, the uses are oriented to vehicular
traffic and service.
| |
|
Regional business (RB-R) - areas in the process
of changing from existing business, residential or industrial uses
into a regional business service area with a wide range of retail
and commercial uses at various scales of operation.
| |
|
Transitional (T-R) - areas adjacent to a commercial
district which will allow for a mixed use of residential structures,
adaptive reuse of residential structures for business purposes and
businesses utilizing new buildings.

A.
The boundaries of the zoning areas and districts created by section 24-13 are hereby established as shown on maps entitled "Zoning District Map of the City of Evanston, Wyoming" which maps and all official amendments thereto are hereby made a part of this chapter. These maps and all official amendments thereto may be subject to the following special provisions and interpretations:
(1)
Unless otherwise defined on the zoning district maps,
district boundary lines are lot lines; the centerlines of streets,
alleys, railroad rights-of-way or such lines extended; section lines;
corporate limit lines; center lines of stream beds; or other lines
drawn to scale on the zoning district map.
(2)
Areas subject to related official City regulations
may be indicated on the zoning district maps where appropriate.
(3)
As part of the zoning district map, the governing
body has adopted a gaming overlay which illustrates areas where gaming
establishments may be conditionally permitted.
(4)
Whenever the governing body establishes a transitional developing district, it shall also consider and may adopt as an official amendment to the zoning district map, a transitional redeveloping overlay for the district. The overlay shall divide the land within the district into separate tracts which will set forth recommended tracts for the construction of new business buildings in the transitional redeveloping zone, that are of an adequate size to conduct business, have sufficient access to public streets, and would not leave remnant, isolated or unusable parcels. At a minimum, the construction of any new business building in a transitional redeveloping zone shall take place only on a single lot of at least 5,000 square feet or multiple lots of at least 10,000 square feet when combined unless a variance is obtained from the board of adjustment pursuant to Article XI of Chapter 24 of the City Code.
B.
When designating the tracts set forth in the transitional
redeveloping overlay the City shall assure that each tract is of an
adequate size to conduct business, has sufficient access to public
streets, and that no remnant, isolated or unusable lots are created.
[Added by Ord. No. 94-26; amended by Ord. 96-1; Ord. No. 96-19; Ord. No. 97-13; Ord. No. 98-14; Ord. No. 99-4; Ord. No. 99-13; Ord. No. 00-6; Ord. No. 03-07; Ord. No. 03-26]
To facilitate public understanding of this chapter
and for the better administration and convenience of use thereof,
the following schedule of "uses allowed by right," and "uses permitted
by conditional review" regulations for the various zoning districts
is hereby adopted and declared to be a part of this chapter, and may
be amended in the same manner as any other part of this chapter. In
each zoning district, any use category not expressly permitted shall
be deemed excluded. If a question arises as to whether a specific
use does or does not come within the following expressed use categories,
any person may apply to the planning department for a determination
as to whether a specific use is expressly permitted.
