Criteria for all conditional uses

Seattle Mun. Code § 23.50A.060

in effect

All conditional uses are subject to the procedures set forth in Chapter 23.76 and shall meet the following criteria: A. The use shall be determined not to be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to property in the zone or vicinity in which the property is located. B. The benefits to the public that would be provided by the use shall outweigh the negative impacts of the use. C. Landscaping and screening, vehicular access controls, and other measures shall insure the compatibility of the use with the surrounding area and mitigate adverse impacts. D. The conditional use shall be denied if it is determined that the negative impacts cannot be mitigated satisfactorily. However, adverse negative impacts may be mitigated by imposing requirements or conditions deemed necessary for the protection of other properties in the zone or vicinity and the public interest. ([Renumbered from 23.50A.006.A]; Ord. 126862 , § 8, 2023.)
