Specific Conditions for Specific Uses In addition to the standard conditions for all conditional uses, most conditional uses have specific conditions that apply. These are listed with the individual uses in the conditional use section of each zoning district. Currently, the zoning ordinance allows churches as conditional uses only in the rural and residential zoning districts. They are included in the category "public, educational, and religious buildings ". Note that religious uses often include a church, an associated school, a community gathering facility, and other such uses.
