What else applies

  • 'Educational Facilities – Colleges and Universities' and 'Commercial Schools' are separate rows and not used. Public school districts are exempt from local zoning by state law (not stated in the code text).
  • Not covered here: Article 8 definitions (e.g. Assembly/Meeting Facilities, Educational Facilities, Animal Keeping) and the Chapter 17.430 specific-use standards are not in the packet; Overlay zones (RAAB overlay) are not base zones. Overlay zones and specific plans can also change the answer.
