The standards provided by this chapter are related to the special characteristics of the uses discussed and unless otherwise noted, apply to developments in addition to all other applicable standards of this title. Any land use subject to this chapter shall comply with the provisions of this chapter for the duration of the use.
A. Where Allowed. The land uses regulated by this chapter are allowed only where noted by Section 22.06.030, Table 2-2 (Allowable Land Uses and Permit Requirements).
B. Permit Requirements. The land uses regulated by this chapter shall comply with the land use permit requirements of Article 2 (Allowable Land Uses and Permit Requirements) unless otherwise specified in this chapter, or unless other permit requirements are set by Article 9 (Community Planning Standards), or combining designation standards (Chapter 22.14).
C. Conflicts with Other Provisions. In cases where the provisions of this chapter conflict with other applicable requirements of this Title, the following rules apply:
1. If the standards of this chapter conflict with the provisions of Articles 2, 3, 5, or 6, these standards shall control;
2. If a use is subject to more than one section of this chapter, the most restrictive standard shall control;
3. Where planning area standards in Article 9 conflict with the provisions of this chapter, the planning area standards shall control.
D. Exceptions to Special Use Standards. The standards of this chapter may be waived or modified through use permit approval, except where otherwise provided by this chapter and except for standards relating to residential density or limitations on the duration of a use (unless specific provisions of this chapter allow their modification). Waiver of modification of standards shall be granted only where the commission first makes findings that:
1. Set forth the necessity for modification or waiver of standards by identifying the specific conditions of the site and/or vicinity which make standard unnecessary or ineffective;
2. Identify the specific standards of this chapter being waived or modified;
3. The project, including the proposed modifications to the standards of this chapter, will satisfy all mandatory findings required for use permit approval by Section 22.62.060(C)(4).
In no case, however, shall any standard of this chapter be reduced beyond the minimum standards of the other chapters of this Title, except through variance (Section 22.62.070). (Ord. 2982 § 1 (part), 2002)
