Conditional Use Permit Decisions in Salt Lake City

A Conditional Use Permit (CUP) - also called a "special exception" in some jurisdictions - grants permission to operate a specific land use in a zoning district where that use is allowed only under certain conditions. Unlike a use variance (which overrides the zoning code), a CUP is specifically contemplated by the code as a use that may be appropriate if certain conditions are met. ZoneWire tracks conditional use permit activity across Salt Lake City, UT public meetings.
