§ 46-662. Uses not otherwise included within specific districts.

(a)

Because the uses hereinafter referred to possess unique characteristics, making it impractical to include them in a specific use district classification, they may be permitted by the planning commission under the conditions specified. In every case, the uses hereinafter referred to shall be specifically prohibited from any residential districts, unless otherwise specified.

(b)

These uses require special consideration since they service an area larger than the city and require sizable land areas, creating problems of control with reference to abutting use districts. Reference to those uses falling specifically within the intent of this section is as follows:

(1)

Shopping malls, amusement parks, stadiums, outdoor recreation and similar uses that require sites greater than five acres and are designed to accommodate occupancies greater than 200 people.

(2)

Mining, gravel or sand extraction, oil exploration or similar temporary uses.

(3)

Commercial television, radio, public utility and/or microwave transmitting towers and their attendant facilities. See section 46-673.
