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 Big Stone Gap’s own text settles what this covers.

bulk storage of inflammable liquids is underground. 14. Garages, parking or storage. 15. Hotels, motels, motor lodges, or tourist homes . 16. Lawnmower, yard and garden equipment, rental sales and service. 17. Lumber and building materials store, but not a lumber yard.
