General provisions
25 rules that bind every district rather than one — sign regulations, parking, floodplain and the rest of the code’s citywide chapters.
To authorize upon appeal in specific cases such variances from the terms of this chapter as will not be contrary to the public interest, when, owing to special conditions, a literal enforcement of the provisions will result in unnecessary hardship
Any development in a designated Chesapeake Bay Protection Area.
Unless otherwise indicated, district boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerlines of existing or proposed roads, streets, highways, alleys, or railroads; mean low water or centerlines, as indicated, of streams, ponds, drainage ditches or other natural and manmade bodies of water; property lines; or civil boundaries shall be construed to follow such lines.
No building or land shall hereinafter be used or occupied, and no building or part thereof shall be erected, constructed, reconstructed, moved or structurally altered except in conformity with all of the regulations herein specified for the district in which it is located or is to be located.
Land may be used or occupied, and buildings structurally altered or erected may be used or changed in use, only after a zoning permit has been issued by the zoning administrator.
