Zones where a bed and breakfast can go
Plymouth's code calls this use “Bed and Breakfast”. Each row links to the use table it comes from. A zone marked “see note” has a condition in the code, for example upper floors only or a larger lot.
| Zone | Status | Code |
|---|---|---|
| A | Allowed — see note Note 5: Five or less-room occupancy. | § 19.56.030 |
| RR | Needs an administrative use permit — see note Note 5: Five or less-room occupancy. | § 19.56.030 |
| SR | Needs an administrative use permit — see note Note 5: Five or less-room occupancy. | § 19.56.030 |
| VR | Needs an administrative use permit — see note Note 5: Five or less-room occupancy. | § 19.56.030 |
What else applies
- Not covered here: Zone names are not stated in the text. The S2 residential table appears to have lost the detached single-family row (see single-family-home).. Overlay zones and specific plans can also change the answer.
