17.A - Matrix of Permitted Uses
modified
A.
Permitted Uses. Table 17.A-1 prescribes the land use regulations for commercial zoning districts. Additional regulations are denoted in the right hand column. These designations apply strictly to the permissibility of land uses; applications for building structures may require other discretionary review. Home occupation businesses and nonresidential uses shall require a Business Occupancy Permit (BOP). Refer to Chapter 17.14 (Zoning Classifications and Map) of this title for a full listing of the different zoning districts.
B.
Unlisted Uses. Any land use not listed in Table 17.A-1 is not permitted in commercial zoning districts, except as outlined in Section 17.12.050 (Rules and Measurements - Additional Permitted Uses) of this title.
