§ 1301. Addition of permitted uses

Upon receipt of an application, or on its own initiative, the planning commission may, by resolution, add a use to the lists of permitted uses and conditional uses prescribed in articles 4 through 10 of this code, if the commission makes the following findings, as applicable:

A.

That the addition of the use to the list of permitted uses will be in accordance with the purposes of the district in which the use is proposed.

B.

That the use has the same basic characteristics as the uses permitted in the district.

C.

That the use reasonably can be expected to conform with the required conditions for the district.

D.

That the use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or adversely affect the character of any district in which it would be located.

E.

That the use will not create more vehicular traffic than the volume normally created by the uses permitted in the district.

F.

That the use will not create more odor, dirt, smoke, noise, vibration, illumination, glare, unsightliness or any other objectionable influence than the amount normally created by any of the other uses permitted in the district.

G.

That the use will not create any greater hazard of fire or explosion than the hazards normally created by any of the uses permitted in the district.

When a use has been added to a list of permitted uses or conditional uses in accordance with the procedure prescribed in this section, the use shall be deemed to be listed as a permitted use in the appropriate section and shall be added to the text of that section of this ordinance when it is next published with a notation of the date when the use was added to the list.
