9.08.040 Addition of a use to land use tables. ¶
Upon an application or on its own initiative and pursuant to Chapter 9.84, the City Council may add a use to the land use tables established in this chapter if the Council makes all the following findings:
P. That the addition of the use to the land use table will be in accordance with the purposes of this title and of the zone district or districts in which the use will be permitted.
Q. That the zone district or districts in which the use is to be permitted has similar basic characteristics as the present uses allowed in the district or districts.
R. That the use will not generate a noticeably greater amount of odor, dirt, smoke, noise, vibration, illumination, glare, unsightliness, or any other objectionable influence or hazard than the amount normally created by any of the other uses permitted in the district or districts in which the use will be permitted.
S. That the establishment of the use in the zone district or districts in which it will be permitted will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare.
