ZOTA-23-2 - A Zoning Ordinance Text Amendment Regarding Assembly Uses in the Industrial District . A work session to discuss potential revisions to Zoning Ordinance Article 3, Section 3-4.12 – Industrial District to address allowable Assembly uses in the District. The Ordinance currently permits several uses as by-right Permitted Uses where people gather for social, entertainment, cultural, educational and recreational purposes, where these uses are classified as Assembly uses by the Building Code. The Building Code classifies Churches as an Assembly use, however Churches are not listed as either a Permitted Use or a Permissible Use in the Industrial District. A text amendment to Section 3-4.12 was initiated by Town Council on May 9, 2023 to allow staff to begin work on potential revisions to the list of Assembly uses that are allowable in the Industrial District.
