Permitted uses.
Long Beach Municipal Code § 21.33.060
in effect21.33.060 - Permitted uses.
A. Table 33-2 shall be used to determine applicable use regulations in the industrial districts. Table 33-2 establishes general classes of uses. For each category, the table indicates whether the class of use is permitted by right (Y); not permitted (N); permitted subject to an administrative use permit (AP) as defined in Chapter 21.25, Division IV (Administrative Use Permits) of this Title; or permitted subject to conditional use permit review (C) pursuant to Chapter 21.25, Division II (Conditional Use Permits) of this Title. All projects within the Coastal Zone are also subject to the Local Coastal Program and provisions as set forth in Chapter 21.25 Division IX.
B. The uses identified in Table 33-2 are more precisely defined by reference to the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Manual published by the federal government's Office of Management and Budget. The 1987 SIC Manual, or the most current edition of the manual, as amended, is incorporated herein by reference. The SIC Manual identifies businesses according to the operating characteristics involved in creating the product (for example, slaughtering, manufacturing pulp, manufacturing industrial inorganic chemicals, petroleum refining) and the effects that these characteristics may have on nearby uses. The actual product created is of secondary importance. For reference purposes, Table 33-1 lists two (2) digit SIC codes and the associated categories of use.
C. The "notes and exceptions" column of the table indicates more precisely the use regulations for specific SIC codes or operating characteristics. The notes and exceptions must be reviewed in conjunction with the other information for that class of use.
D. For uses or activities not specifically identified in Table 33-2, the Zoning Administrator shall have the authority to interpret and assign the appropriate SIC code for that use or activity. The decision of the Zoning Administrator can be appealed to the Planning Commission pursuant to Chapter 21.21, Division V (Appeals) of this Title.
