§ 1-208. Uses – generic, specific, and prohibited.

(a) Generic uses described.

Certain uses in this Code are defined to be inclusive of many specific uses so as to minimize overly detailed lists of uses for the various zoning districts established by this Code. These inclusive uses are referred to in this Code as "generic uses".

(b) Relationship of generic to specific.

(1) If a specific use is listed in any use table, that specific use cannot be interpreted as falling within any generic use that is listed in the same table.

(2) If the definition of a generic use specifically excludes a specific use, the generic use cannot be interpreted as allowing that specific use.

(c) Uses prohibited if not listed.

A use is prohibited in a zoning district unless:

(1) that use is specifically listed as a permitted or conditional use in the use table for that district; or

(2) that use falls within the definition of a generic use that is itself listed as a permitted or conditional use in the use table for that district.
