No principal building, structure or land use shall be permitted except in the zoning districts indicated and for the purposes permitted in tables 7.3 and 7.4. Each use is mutually exclusive and does not encompass other uses listed in the table. The letter "P" indicates a permitted use in that zoning district. A principal use denoted by the letter "S" is permitted only if a special use permit is granted by the Troup County Commission. Special use permits are subject to standards for special uses stated in Article XV. Uses not permitted are indicated by "NP" in that zoning district. "N/A" means not applicable. For uses not included on this list where the Zoning Administrator is unable to determine clear placement, application shall be made to the Troup County Board of Commissioners for an amendment to the text of this table under provisions of this Ordinance for text amendments to the zoning ordinance and in accordance with the Zoning Procedures Act as set forth in O.C.G.A. § 36-66-1 et seq.
