§ 46-744. Purpose.

Latest version.

Special land uses are those uses of land which are not essentially incompatible with

the uses permitted in a zoning district, but possess characteristics or locational qualities which require individual review and legislation in order to avoid incompatibility with the natural environment of the site, the character of the surrounding area, public services and facilities, and adjacent land uses. The purpose of this article is to establish equitable procedures and criteria, which shall be applied in the determination of requests to establish special land uses. In addition, special land uses are a means of implementing changes in land use as envisioned and outlined in the long-range comprehensive plan and shall be utilized as such. The standards for approval and requirements provided for under the provisions of this article shall be in addition to those required elsewhere in this chapter, which are applicable to the special land use under consideration.
