SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

Sections:

23.328.060 Industrial land use equivalency table.

23.328.010 Purpose.

The purpose of this chapter is to provide additional information related to this article of the zoning code. This information is typically not needed for day-to-day implementation of the code but can be used to help clarify certain provisions and provide more detailed information where necessary. [Ord. 4-2017 § 3 (Exh. B); Ord. 12-2011 § 3 (Exh. A); Ord. 7-2010 § 3 (Exh. A)].

23.328.060 Industrial land use equivalency table.

Table 23.328-1 provides a detailed list of commercial and industrial uses that may be permitted in the light industrial (M-1) and heavy industrial (M-2) zoning districts. The purpose of this table is to help determine whether or not certain specific uses are:

A. Permitted (P);

B. Permitted with an administrative use permit (AUP);

C. Permitted with a limited use permit (L);

D. Permitted with a conditional use permit (C);

E. Not permitted (N); or

F. Allowed with a temporary use permit (T);

Table 23.328-1 is arranged to match Table 23.316-1 to help identify land uses that were permitted under Sacramento County jurisdiction and the equivalent land use permit requirement under Rancho Cordova jurisdiction. This table should always be used in conjunction with Table 23.316-1, Allowed Use and Permit Requirements for General Commercial and Industrial Zoning Districts.
