18.25.010 Purpose.

A district use chart is established and contained herein as a tool for the purpose of determining the specific uses permitted in each zoning district. No use shall be permitted in a zoning district that is not listed in the use chart as either a permitted, accessory or conditional use, unless the administrator determines that an unlisted use is similar to one that is already enumerated in the use chart and may therefore be permitted subject to the requirements associated with that use and all other applicable provisions of code. [Ord. 1627 § 2 (Att. B), 2021.]

18.25.020 Shoreline Master Program.

The city has adopted the Shoreline Master Program including its Shoreline Use and Modification Matrix which provides a list of permitted, conditional and prohibited uses within the shoreline jurisdiction. Uses within the shoreline may be more or less restrictive of the district use chart; however, whichever regulation is more restrictive (protective of the environment) shall govern. [Ord. 1627 § 2 (Att. B), 2021.]

18.25.030 District use chart.

The following acronyms apply to the district use chart. If there is no notation in the chart for the zoning district, that use is not permitted. All uses must meet city standards:

“P” Permitted Use. Those uses/development which are permitted when meeting the city regulations.

“AU” Accessory Use. A use or structure on the same lot that is incidental or subordinate to the primary use or structure, and which may exist only when a primary use is existing on the same lot. The floor area of the accessory use must be less than that devoted to the primary use or structure.

“C” Conditional Use. A use allowed in one or more zones as defined by the zoning code and this district use chart, but which, because of characteristics peculiar to such use, the size, technological processes or equipment, or because of the exact location with reference to surroundings, streets, and existing improvements or demands upon public facilities, requires an approval as provided by the code in order to provide a particular degree of control to make such uses consistent and compatible with other existing or permissible uses in the same zone and mitigate adverse impacts of the use.

“ ” (blank) Prohibited. A use/development which is not permitted.
