§ 14.200.020. Designation of uses. ¶

With regard to the agricultural use table, an "X" indicates that the described use is permitted in the district represented by the symbol at the top of the column. A "U" indicates that the described use

requires a use permit in the district represented by the symbol at the top of the column. The absence of an "X" or "U" indicates that the particular use is prohibited in such a district. If a use is not listed on the table, the city planner, upon application, shall determine and recommend to the planning commission whether or not such use is similar in character to a described use for the purposes of applying district regulations and special conditions.
