Special Use
For each zoning district, the Zoning Ordinance contains a list of "permitted uses" and "special uses." A permitted land use, such as a single-family home in a single-family district, is a land use for which a land owner does not need any special type of zoning permission, though other zoning and other laws do apply. A special use is one for which the land owner must obtain special permission involving public hearings and City Council approval. The forms and sheets below concern this process.
