§ 18.07.010. Purpose and intent.¶
The public institutional (PI) zoning district is established for the following purposes:
A. To ensure that the public, quasi-public, and institutional use of property is related to the purposes and policies of the general plan and the public/quasi-public land use classification contained in the general plan;
B. To recognize the public, quasi-public, and institutional nature of particular parcels of land and provide standards and guidelines for their continued use and future development; and
C. To ensure that the public, quasi-public, and institutional structures and developments in the district will be compatible with surrounding districts and uses.
The requirements of the PI zoning district are intended to apply to publicly owned property, property owned by quasi-public or public service entities, and property used or planned to be used for certain institutional facilities.
