Conditional Use Permit
The purpose of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) is to allow the establishment of uses which may be suitable only in certain locations in a zoning district or only when subject to standards and conditions that assure compatibility with adjoining uses. Conditional use permits require individual review and approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council. The review may include analysis of proposed location, design and configuration, and result in conditions of approval in order to ensure the appropriateness of the use at a particular location.
Only those uses enumerated as conditional use permits in a particular zoning district (Chapter 2, Land Use Matrix), or those nonconforming uses which are damaged or destroyed, and which are permitted to be reestablished under the Unified Development Code, shall be authorized to apply for a conditional use permit. The CUP application must be accompanied by a Site Plan and other listed required items.
Prior to submitting, please request a Pre-Development meeting to discuss your request and share plans. Request a meeting by clicking here or click on the Development Services tab on the left side of this page.
Please submit a completed CUP application and submit on a submittal day using the online permit portal. Planning staff will schedule a public hearing before the Planning and Zoning Commission for review and recommendation. The final outcome of the CUP application is determined by the City Council following a public hearing and discussion. The City Council will vote during the meeting whether to approve, approve with conditions or modifications, or deny the permit application.
