  • No principal building, structure, or land use shall be permitted except in the zoning districts indicated and for the purposes permitted in Table 9.3 Permitted and Conditional Uses table. A principal use listed in Table 9.3 is permitted by right in any district denoted by the letter "X" and may be subject to section 9.4: Additional requirements for specific permitted uses, other requirements of state law, and other applicable regulations of this ordinance. A principal use denoted by the letter "C" is permitted only if a conditional use approval is granted by the mayor and council through the process required by the zoning procedures and standards ordinance, a separate ordinance. For uses not included on this list, where the building inspector/zoning administrator/city manager is unable to determine placement due to similarity of use, application shall be made to the zoning board of appeals for interpretation under their "special exception" powers.
