18.64.010 Description and purpose. (1) The principal objectives of this Zoning
Code are to provide for the proper location of various types of land use, and to
classify types of land use in homogeneous zones in which such uses shail be permitted.
It is recognized, however, that certaln types of land use require special considera-
tdon prior to their being permitted in a particular zone. Such special consideration
involves, among other things, 1) the s'ize of the area required for the full develop-
ment of such uses, 2) the nature of the traffic problems incidental to their ope~•ation,
and 3) the effect which such uses may have on adjoining land uses and on the growth
and development of the community as a whole. ~fhis Code, therefore, provides that
certa(n uses may be permitted unless expressly prohibited, subject to the securing of
a Conditional Use Permit, as herein prov?ded,
(2) The Planning Commission, as an admt~tst!-ative act, may grant a ~onditional
Use Permit for any use herinfor prov3ded, if conditSons set f~rth in Section 18.64.030
are satisfied. In granting any such Conditional Use Permit the Planning Cortmission
may establish such conditions as it may determir.e to be necessary to safeguard and
protect the public health, safety, and gene~al welfare, and to insure the development
of the use in accordance with approved plans.
