Section 136: STATION COMMUNITY PLANNING AREAS

(Added by Ord. No. 4458/8-96.)

IV. PERMITTED LAND USES

 

 

 

A. Land uses listed on Tables 1, 2 and 3 shall be allowed, conditionally allowed or not permitted in the Station Community Planning Areas shown.   The listed uses must be consistent with the description of the relevant district as set forth in subsection II of this Section , and may be further restricted by subsection V. of this Section and the standards of Sections 136 through 142.   Uses listed as being subject to a Conditional Use Permit ("C") shall require findings of fact that the proposed use is, where practicable, transit-supportive. The tables are organized by major types of district along with appropriate use categories for that type of district listed. Use categories vary by table. (Amended by Ord. No. 4930/7-00.)

B. Where a particular use within a broader category (e.g., "indoor cinema" as a "commercial" use) is cited in Tables 1, 2, and 3, it is intended to signify that the use is either not allowed in one or more of the districts, or is an unusual use to be permitted in one or more of the districts and is, therefore, due special recognition of its suitability to be in the district. (Amended by Ord. No. 4930/7-00.)
