chart is established and contained herein as a tool for

each use district. No use shall be allowed in a zoning
district that is not listed in the use chart as either
permitted, accessory or conditional use, unless the

to one that is already enumerated in the use chart and may
therefore be allowed, subject to the requirements
associated with that use and all other applicable
provisions of the CMC and city of Cashmere rules and
regulations. (Ord. 1097 § 1, 2007; Ord. 1047 § 1, 2004;

For unlisted uses the city administrator shall determine
if said unlisted use is similar to one that is already
enumerated in the use chart and may therefore be allowed,
subject to the requirements associated with that use and
other applicable provisions of the CMC.
