Example restriction

Unlisted uses may be treated as prohibited

Example: Section 2, Subdivision 1(4)Example: PDF page 8Somewhere County example
When a use is neither specifically permitted nor denied, the use may be considered prohibited.

The example A/R use list does not expressly list an RV or motorhome as a full-time dwelling. That makes direct confirmation from the governing zoning office essential.

A seasonal RV rule may apply only in other districts

Example: Section 10 district provisionsExample: PDF pages 60–61Somewhere County example
Travel trailers or motor homes used as temporary dwellings may be limited to a stated seasonal period.

An explicit seasonal allowance may apply only to specified districts. It should not be carried over automatically to this example A/R district.

Dwelling dimensions and foundation may matter

Example: Section 6, Subdivision 2(17)Example: PDF pages 27–28Somewhere County example
A qualifying dwelling may need to meet a minimum width and be placed on an appropriate foundation.

The example clause uses a 22-foot width threshold without stating a separate minimum length. Other building and foundation rules may still apply.

An interim-use path may exist, but eligibility is unresolved

Example: Section 19Example: PDF page 157Somewhere County example
An interim use may allow an otherwise unlisted use for a limited period of time.

An interim-use permit may be worth asking about. Its existence does not mean the proposed use qualifies or will be approved.
