Conditional Use Application
Use this application for Conditional Use permits that require additional design standards to ensure compatibility with adjacent uses and the surrounding neighborhood. If a use has been identified as a Conditional Use, then review for compliance with these additional standards is required.
Not all Conditional Uses from the Land Development Code require an application for a Conditional Use permit. If a Conditional Use permit is not required, review for compliance with the standards will be done during site development review. To determine if a proposed use requires a Conditional Use permit, view the Zoning Information & Counseling page.
To determine if a proposed use requires a Conditional Use Permit please contact Zoning Counseling.
Administrative Waiver Application
The Administrator has the ability to review and approve adjustments to development standards (setback, yard or building orientation, parking, etc.) if determined appropriate administratively and if they meet certain criteria set forth by the Land Development Code.
