20C.20.15 Allowed Uses in the Agriculture and Urban Recreation Zones.

20C.20.15-010 Purpose.

The purpose of the Agriculture and Urban Recreation Zone Land Uses Chart is to list the uses allowed in the zone and some of the major provisions that apply to those uses. These uses were selected on the basis that they would generally not be adversely affected by natural hazards and would have minimal impact on the natural resources of the valley, especially agricultural soils not used for nonagricultural urban uses, and would not place high demands on transportation, water, or sewer systems. (Ord. 2105; Ord. 1917)

20C.20.15-020 Allowed Uses.

(1)    The Agriculture and Urban Recreation Zone Land Uses Chart, RCDG 20C.20.15-030, lists the permitted uses and those uses that require approval through a conditional review process before they can be undertaken. Uses that are not listed are prohibited unless otherwise allowed in the Agriculture or Urban Recreation zone by this chapter or some other provision of the Community Development Guide. The uses shall also comply with the requirements listed in any footnotes and the other applicable requirements of the Community Development Guide.

(2)    The symbols used in the Agriculture and Urban Recreation Zone Land Uses Chart, RCDG 20C.20.15-030, shall mean the following:

P     – Permitted use.

G     – Allowed conditional use, a general development permit (GDP) is required before undertaking the use.

S     – Allowed conditional use, a special development permit (SDP) is required before undertaking the use.

(3)    Procedural requirements including those related to the general and special development permit processes are described in RCDG Title 20F, or its successors, of the Redmond Community Development Guide.

(4)    The Agriculture and Urban Recreation Zone Land Uses Chart, RCDG 20C.20.15-030, references other sections of the Community Development Guide. These references direct the reader to sections that contain regulations that apply directly to the use. The references just include those that most directly affect the use. Other regulations also apply.

(5)    The definitions of some land uses may be found in Chapter 20A.20 RCDG, Definitions.

(6)    Unclassified Uses are provided for in RCDG 20D.170.65, Unclassified Uses.

(7)    Recreation uses which require a general development permit or special development permit and accessory restaurants shall comply with RCDG 20C.20.25-010, Special Use Standards for Recreational Uses. (Ord. 2105; Ord. 1917)
