§ 21.15.2475. Shelter.  


Latest version.
  • "Shelter" means a residential land use for more than six (6) transient occupants. Shelters differ from hotels and motels by providing lodging free or at nominal cost. They may sometimes, but not always, be differentiated by group sleeping halls instead of individual rooms. A shelter is classified as one type of special group residence. A shelter is an acceptable accessory use only when provided within an existing church building on a shared-use basis. A shared use exists when the sheltering of families or individuals in need of sanctuary is incidental to the primary church use for which the building is designed and intended.
