What is Conditional Use Permit (CUP)?

A permit allowing a specific land use in a zone where it's not automatically permitted, subject to conditions.

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.
