Special land uses in Smyrna, TN

What the Smyrna zoning ordinance says about special land uses, district by district. Section numbers link to the official ordinance.

All districts

Special exceptions (conditional uses) are decided by the Board of Zoning Appeals after an application showing the site, intended uses, owners, and land uses within 200 ft. The Board must make written findings on access, parking, refuse, utilities, screening, signs, yards, and compatibility, and each use type carries its own Section 7.061 conditions, such as doubled lot area for religious facilities outside R-1 and R-4, arterial or collector frontage requirements, and separation distances for special institutional care facilities. Overlays, planned-development approvals, recorded conditions, and Article VI exceptions can change the parcel-specific result; confirm with Smyrna Planning and Zoning before relying on this answer.
