Title 18 - Unified Development Ordinance

18.390.010 Intent and Interpretation

1. A.
   It is the intent of this Chapter to regard certain activities as being accessory to the principal use of the premises that may be carried on underneath the umbrella of the principal use. An activity will be considered an accessory use or structure when it is conducted in conjunction with the principal use and the activity constitutes only an incidental part of the total activity that takes place on the property, and is commonly associated with the principal use and integrally related to it.
2. B.
   For purposes of interpreting subsection A:

   1. 1.
      A use or structure may be regarded as "incidental" if it is both insubstantial and subordinate in relation to the principal use.
   2. 2.
      To be "commonly associated" with a principal use, it is not necessary for an accessory use or structure to be connected with such principal use more times than not, but only that the association of such accessory use or structure with such principal use takes place with sufficient frequency that there is common acceptance of their relatedness.
