§ 18.160.130 — "M" Definitions

Machine Tools Manufacturing. See “Industrial”. Maintenance and Repair Services. On-site repair and incidental sales of supplies for small household goods, machinery, tools, equipment, and appliances, conducted within an enclosed building. This classification includes furniture refinishing and repair and excludes maintenance and repair of vehicles or industrial equipment. Maintained. Preserved in a condition or state of equivalent quality to that which was approved or required by the City. Unless the context demands otherwise, the term is synonymous and is interchangeable with the term “permanently maintained.” Major Alteration. Any significant change that is subject to Director of Community Development review and approval in accordance with Chapter 18.130 (Historic Preservation) SCCC or pursuant to City policy or procedure. Major Transit Stop. Any of the following: (1) a transit stop identified in the current version of Plan Bay Area; (2) an existing rail or bus rapid transit station; or (3) the intersection of two or more major bus routes with a frequency of service interval of 15 minutes or less during the morning and afternoon peak commute periods. As used in this definition, “intersection of two or more major bus routes” means that two or more bus routes converge, meet, or cross, and either a bus stop serving both lines is located in the immediate proximity of the intersection, or a separate bus stop for each bus line is located in the immediate proximity of the intersection. For purposes of clarification, if two bus lines run parallel to each other, such as a rapid bus and a local bus, then a bus stop serving both lines in a location where the lines run parallel does not constitute an “intersection” and does not qualify as a major transit stop. Manufacturing Plant. See “Industrial”. Massage Establishment. See City Code Chapter 5.40 (Massage Services and Massage Establishments) for more information. Mausoleum. See “Cemetery and Mausoleum”.
