3.A.Boat Repair in the RA Zoning District
Request to include “Boat Repair” as a conditional use in the RA (Rural Areas)
Zoning District. The Frederick Zoning Ordinance allows boat repair only within
the M1 (Light Industrial) and M2 (Industrial General) Zoning Districts (classified
as SIC-37 Transportation Equipment). The Zoning Ordinance also allows for
automotive repair (SIC-75 Automotive Repair, Services, and Parking) within
the M1 and M2 Zoning District. In RA (Rural Areas) Zoning District a “Public
Garage” for auto repair is allowed with a conditional use permit (CUP).
This proposed amendment was initiated by a resident of the County through
their Board of Supervisors representative.
