Interpretation

130 1 Unless otherwise referenced in subsection (7), every definition relating to a use is the exclusive definition of that use.
2 Every use is classified as belonging to a group of uses as set out in Schedule A to this Bylaw, which is referenced only to compare and contrast related uses.
3 All subsections and clauses that precede the subsection indicating within which group of uses a use belongs in Schedule A are part of the definition of that use and must not be relaxed in accordance with section 40. All subsections and clauses that follow the use classification are rules and may be relaxed at the discretion of the Development Authority, in accordance with section 31 or 36, unless this Bylaw specifically provides that it is a rule that must not be relaxed.
4 Unless otherwise referenced in subsection (7), the use definitions must not be interpreted to include a development that clearly falls within another defined use.
5 Where a development is capable of being more than one use, the use under which the development more clearly fits must govern.
6 Every definition of a use must be read to allow for all things necessary or customary for the use and includes ancillary functions, such as, but not limited to, reception and administration areas, storage areas, toilet facilities, staff rooms, loading and unloading facilities and the storage of fleet vehicles.
7 Where this Part contains a definition or rules for a use that expressly includes another use or allows for another use to be combined with it, the other use must be read to be part of the defined use.
8 Where a use definition references examples to aid in the interpretation of the use they are not intended to be exclusive or restrictive unless otherwise stated in the use definition.
