Indianapolis-Marion County Revised Code § 743-203
in effectSec. 743-203. - Permitted where vacant.
A "V" in a cell of the Use Table indicates that the land use may be permitted in that Primary Zoning District upon acknowledgement by the Administrator, provided that it takes place in an existing building that the applicant documents that the building has been vacant for a period of 5 consecutive years and that it complies with any use-specific standards referenced in the final column of Table 743-1: Use Table and with all other applicable requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. All uses that were permitted by right when the building was established, but that is listed as a "V" use in the Zoning Ordinance will be deemed to have already obtained approval and the City will issue a permit at the request of the property owner.
