Ordinance To Amend And Re-Enact Chapter 3 Of The Zoning Ordinance Of The City Of Hampton Virginia Entitled Uses Permitted By Amending Section 3-2 Pertaining To Automobile Wrecking In The Use Table and Section 3-3 Pertaining To Additional Standards On Permitted Uses
Purpose
Background Statement:
Chapter 3 of the zoning ordinance governs uses permitted in the city. This housekeeping amendment proposes to fix an error in the ordinance resulting from the adoption of the Use Table in 2014.
Specifically, this amendment will clarify that outdoor automobile wrecking in the M-3 district requires a use permit and that this use is also subject to an additional standard where permitted. The amendment will also clarify that indoor automobile wrecking is subject to an additional standard where permitted.
These changes would result in the ordinance reading the way it did prior to the error in the Use Table adoption.
