A special exception is a
use
that would not be appropriate generally or without restriction throughout a zoning
division, district or county at large, but which, if controlled as to number, area,
location, or relation to neighborhoods, would promote the health, safety, welfare,
order, comfort, convenience, appearance, prosperity, or the general welfare of the
county and its residents. Such uses may be permissible in a zoning classification
or district as a special exception if specific provision for such a special exception
is made in this Code. Special exceptions are permissible by the board of adjustments
and appeals after public notice and hearing as described in sections 12.03.01, 12.03.02, part 13.04.00 and subject to appropriate conditions and safeguards as provided in
this part.
