Unofficial copy. It may be out of date. Not legal or zoning advice. Zoning rules change, and only the city or county can say for sure what is allowed on a property. Confirm with the city or county planning department before you buy, sign or build.

Zoning ordinance only; the subdivision ordinance is a scanned image on the town's site and is not included.
Tables (like use tables) may not copy cleanly, so check any table against the official code.
Confirm anything here with Cleveland planning before you rely on it.
A. Checklists. Anyone desiring to procure a Cleveland Town permit and/or license to operate a residential facility for the disabled or the elderly, or a youth home, shall begin the process by completing the Congregate Living Facility Checklist (Appendix A), consulting with the Cleveland Town recorder. When the checklist has been reviewed and deemed complete by the Town recorder, the applicant may be placed on the agenda of the next regular meeting of the Planning Commission.
B. Planning Commission Approval. The Planning Commission will hear the applicant’s proposal, review the checklist and all required documentation, and determine whether or not it is in harmony with the Cleveland Town General Plan and in compliance with the Cleveland Town zoning ordinance and State and Town standards for granting a conditional use permit. The Planning Commission shall then approve, deny or approve with conditions. Any specific conditions shall be placed on the permit, in writing at the time of approval.
C. Town Council to Issue Business License. If the Planning Commission approves a conditional use permit for a congregate living facility the applicant may then supply the necessary documentation and request a business license to operate the facility.
