Staff has formulated a matrix to simplify the process of determining what uses are permitted uses, conditional uses, accessory uses, and interim uses in each district. Staff used the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Manual when classifying each use, in order to clarify and consolidate uses that are considered similar. Attached is the matrix which combines some uses into a single category for clarification purposes. This process of combining uses was based both on similarity of use as well as the SIC Manual. We will be discussing these items related to Use Clarification at the Planning Commission meeting, July 1, 2003. The intent of the discUssion is to give staff direction and clarification on uses and zoning districts. - Staff is recommending the attached changes to Chapter 20. 'Staff is looking to the Planning Commission to review the following recommendations and provide comments, suggestions, and any other input for additional changes. Staff is also requesting that the Planning CommisSion review the listed uses in the districts to determine if uses should be added or deleted. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at (952) 227-1131.
