public safety facility

Named in 2 of this ordinance’s zoning districts.

How this ordinance defines it

The operative definition is the local one. Codes routinely subdivide a category into tiers — “day care 2, family”, “group home 2” — and attach different permissions to each, so only Alleghany County Unincorporated’s own text settles what this covers.

Chapter 21Reads like a definition

as parks and playgrounds, among others. (Amdmt. No. 95-2, 4-4-95; Ord. 00-3, 8-1-00) ** Public safety facility ** means a public facility providing public safety and emergency services, including police and fire protection and associated support and training facilities.
