2. CLUDC Land Use Categories
The land uses currently allowed within each of the zoning district will remain unchanged, with one exception.

Science Center will be added as a land use requiring a Use Permit (to the listing that includes Library and Museum) in the Public Facilities zoning district. Science center is a broader category and has been added to this list because it incorporates the following types of activities, not typically associated with a museum: science research, science education, indoor and outdoor exhibits, animal keeping and rescue, technology experience, equipment storage, research and development, retail, and scientist housing.

This LCP amendment would consist of the following changes:

Amend Table 2-14 of 17.26.030 to add Science Center to the Public Facilities zoning district as noted below:
