Title
An ordinance relating to zoning regulations for general or government offices in the industrial-heavy zoning district.
Sections
295-803-2-f am
Analysis
Currently, the limited use standard for a general office or government office in an industrial-heavy zoning district is that the structure to be occupied by the office was constructed prior to October 1, 2002, was originally designed and intended to be occupied in whole or in part by a non-industrial use and has been occupied by such non-industrial use within the past 12 months. If this standard is met, the office is permitted by right; if it is not met, the office is permitted only upon the granting of a special use permit by the board of zoning appeals.
This ordinance modifies the limited use standard for a general office or government office to require that the non-industrial use for which the structure was originally designed and intended to be occupied was a principal use of the structure.
