Day care center, child (as an accessory use)

Named in 31 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 Norfolk’s own text settles what this covers.
