Special-use permit

A special-use permit authorizes land uses that are allowed and encouraged by the ordinance and declared harmonious with the applicable zoning district.

Purpose

Land use is governed by a set of regulations generally known as ordinances or municipal codes, which are authorized by the state's zoning enabling law. Within an ordinance is a list of land use designations commonly known as zoning. Each different type of zone has its own set of allowed uses. These are known as by-right uses. Then there is an extra set of uses known as special uses. To build a use that is listed as a special use, a special-use permit (or conditional-use permit) must be obtained.

An example of a special-use permit may be found in a church applying for one to construct a church building in a residential neighborhood. Although the church building is not a residential building, the zoning law may allow for churches in the residential neighborhood if the local zoning authority may review the impact on the neighborhood. This process grants discretion to the local zoning authority to ensure that an acceptable land use does not disrupt the zoning scheme because of its particular location.

US Zoning Model Act

The Standard State Zoning Enabling Act allows special-use permits based upon a finding of compatibility with surrounding areas and with developments already permitted under the general provisions of the ordinance.

Abuse

If the local zoning authority grants a special-use permit that exceeds the discretion allowed to it, then an incidence of spot zoning may arise. Such discretion then may be attacked as ultra vires, and the special-use permit overturned as an unconstitutional violation of equal protection.

Special-use permits are also required when a property has been deemed a "nonconforming use." A permit for a nonconforming use will allow the owner of a previously-compliant property to continue the existing use. This often arises when a property has been rezoned or amortized. Amortization is unconstitutional in many states, and is a controversial tool according to many property rights advocacy groups.


Special-use permit

An example of special-use-permit abuse may be found when a business or other organization is using U.S. Forest Service land for commercial use. Special-use permits may be revoked after the initial period if it is deemed to have not met the proposed public need. This then allows for another operator to apply for the special-use permit which will be evaluated on whether they are likely to succeed and meet the public need as well as follow all other criteria such as proper resource management and respectful public use. If deemed successful after the initial period the permit can be renewed for a longer period.

Other uses

Special land-use permits are also issued by the U.S. Forest Service for the operation of ski areas and other recreational facilities in national forests. These facilities are operated by commercial providers who help the public in a way that would not otherwise be helped by the U.S. Forest Service. The U.S. Forest Service does not run the facility itself and is not the one providing the benefits that the commercial business provides. Special-use permits have also been issued for other purposes, such as in Alaska during the summer of 2015, when special fishing permits were issued to feed firefighters who had difficulty receiving supplies via land routes due to the forest fires that they were fighting in remote areas.

In broadcasting, a restricted service licence (UK) or special temporary authority (US) may be issued by a broadcasting authority for temporary changes or set-ups for a radio station or television station. This may be for a temporary LPFM station for a special event (an RSL), or for an unexpected situation such as having to operate at low power from an emergency radio antenna or radio tower after a disaster or major equipment failure (STA).

Robin Hood's Ball

Robin Hood’s Ball is a Neolithic causewayed enclosure on Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire, England, approximately 5 miles (8 km) northwest of the town of Amesbury, and 2+1⁄2 miles (4.0 km) northwest of Stonehenge. The site was designated as a scheduled monument in 1965.

Etymology

Robin Hood's Ball is unrelated to the folklore hero Robin Hood. 19th-century maps indicate that Robin Hood's Ball was the name given to a small circular copse of trees just to the northwest of the earthworks; it is probable that over time the name came to be associated with the enclosure instead. Greenwood's map of 1820 shows the copse named as Robin Hood's Ball and the enclosure as Neath Barrow.

Context

A causewayed enclosure consists of a circuit of ditches dug in short segments, leaving 'causeways' passing between them to the centre. Whilst some have three or four causeways, Robin Hood’s Ball has only one, cutting through two circuits of ditches with low banks behind them. If it is assumed that the area was free of woodland in the Neolithic period, then its position on a low hill would have afforded clear views of the plain in all directions, and the site of Stonehenge would have been visible, although it is likely that the enclosure predates it by some time.

Robin Hood's Ball is outside the northern boundary of the Stonehenge World Heritage Site.

History

Robin Hood’s Ball is a Neolithic feature that dates from the earliest developments around the plain. It was probably constructed at around 4000 BC and in use possibly up to 3000 BC. When first constructed, none of the monuments to the south such as the Stonehenge Cursus, Durrington Walls, or Stonehenge itself had yet been constructed. However, there may have been a henge at Coneybury, one mile east of Stonehenge, and it is possible that there were earlier features at Stonehenge before the bank and ditch were dug, as indicated by the Mesolithic postholes found beneath the former visitors' car park (in use until 2013) and now marked in grassland, adjacent to the access track to the main site.


Robin Hood's Ball

Several long barrows were constructed on the plain around the same time, including one close to the Ball and several more within short distances such as White Barrow and Winterbourne Stoke Long Barrow. It is estimated that the site began to fall out of use around 3000 BC, about the same time as the earliest earthworks at Stonehenge (itself originally a causewayed enclosure) began.

Use

Though Robin Hood's Ball has never been comprehensively excavated and its use is unclear, it has been suggested that these camps may have served as centres or rally points for a fairly wide area, where tribal ceremonies could be performed.hunter-gatherer to permanent settlement during the Neolithic revolution, and the relatively even spacing of causewayed enclosures across the south indicates that they may have been the central points of tribes or communities.

Location

The site is within the Salisbury Plain Training Area, inside the boundaries of the Larkhill live firing area. It is next to a public right of way, but this can only be used when danger flags are not flying, and it is not permissible to leave the track.

Tiranny

Not to be confused with Tyranny.

Tiranny (from Irish: Tuath Threana, meaning 'territory of Trena')barony in County Armagh, Northern Ireland.County Tyrone to its west and County Monaghan in the Republic of Ireland to its south. It is bordered by three other baronies in Northern Ireland: Dungannon Lower and Dungannon Upper to the north-west; and Armagh to the east.Cremorne to the south and Trough to the west.

Etymology

The name Tiranny is a softened form of Toughranie,Tuath Threana. The form Tiranny was created by the Ordnance Survey and led to the incorrect conjecture by some such as John O'Donovan that the first element of the name derived from the Irish word tír, meaning "country".

Older phonetic forms of Tuatha Threna included Toaghrany, Toyghrayny, Toaghraine, Toaghranye, Towrany, Tuterany, Toghrany, Toorany, Turrany, and Torany, all of which are found in records from the early seventeenth century.

The second element Threna is derived from the Uí Threna (English: descendants of Trena), the name of a tribe that settled on the western boundaries of modern County Armagh, where the barony of Tiranny is located. In various Elizabethan maps of Ulster, they are recorded in the anglicised forms of O'Traney, O'Trany, Outraine, and Traney, before the term Tuath Threana was used.

History

The Uí Threna were descended from Trena, the great-grandson of Colla Fo Chrí, one of the Three Collas,Airgíalla.

In the north-east of Tiranny, south of the River Blackwater there was a sub-territory called Clanaul, the original name of the parish of Eglish. The name is preserved in the form Glenaul which was used as the name for the local district electoral division of the former Armagh Poor Law Union.Cluain Dabhail, which means "meadow of Dabhal", noted as the ancient name of the River Blackwater.


Tiranny

To the east of Tiranny lay the territory of Tuath Echach (English: territory of Aughy), anglicised as Tooaghy, now the barony of Armagh.Uí Echach (English: tribe of Aughy), whose ancestor Echach was the brother of Trena the ancestor of the Uí Threna. They are also recorded as the Uí Eochaidh.

List of settlements

Below is a list of settlements in Tiranny:

  * Middletown
  * Tynan

List of civil parishes

Below is a list of civil parishes in Tiranny:

  * Eglish (split with barony of Armagh)
  * Derrynoose (also partly in barony of Armagh)

The Penguin Guide to Jazz

In his review for AllMusic, Alex Henderson states: "This is hardly a session in which the quartet states the theme and the players take turns blowing--when Morris is soloing, you never know who will jump in and respond with some blowing of his or her own."

The Penguin Guide to Jazz observes that "the title piece is the most convincing representation of its unconventional sonority, and some care has been taken to register all the elements with something like democracy."

In his review for JazzTimes, Larry Appelbaum states: "Everything is rooted in the improviser's collective ability to listen and create spontaneous harmony, pulse and structure."

Prior of Whithorn

The Prior of Whithorn was the head of the monastic community at Whithorn Priory, attached to the bishopric of Galloway at Whithorn. It was originally an Augustinian establishment, but became Premonstratensian by the time of the second or third known prior. As most of the priors of Whithorn appear to be native Galwegian Gaels, it would appear that most priors before the 16th century at least were drawn from region, something unusual in medieval Scotland.

Skomer Marine Conservation Zone is an underwater marine nature reserve located off the coast of Pembrokeshire in Wales. The nature reserve completely surrounds the islands of Skomer and Middleholm, and encompasses the mainland coastline around the end of the Marloes peninsula, including the small bay of Martin's Haven.

The sea bed and rocky shelves of the island are teeming with life. Common eelgrass, Zostera marina, one of the very few plants that flower underwater, grows on beds of sand and gravel in sheltered waters and its long, grass-like leaves form underwater lawns that provide food and shelter for other plants and animals. Species of lobsters, crabs and other crustaceans abound, and grey seals give birth on the coast in October and November.

History

Although the island of Skomer had long been a protected area, the Marine Nature Reserve was not established until 1990.United Kingdom.Marine Conservation Zones in 2013, there has been a larger network of marine reserves in the UK. Skomer itself was reclassified as a Marine Conservation Zone in December 2014.

Related protected area

In 2004 Pembrokeshire Marine SAC was designated. The SAC is much larger than the nature reserve at 132,174 ha.

The Old English term Kent first appears in the Anglo-Saxon period, and was based on the earlier Celtic-language name Cantii.River Medway, by the end of the sixth century it also referred to areas to the west of it.Kingdom of Kent was the first recorded Anglo-Saxon kingdom to appear in the historical record,Francia, while the Kentish royal family married members of Francia's Merovingian dynasty, who were already Christian.Æthelberht was the overlord of various neighbouring kingdoms when he converted to Christianity in the early seventh century as a result of Augustine of Canterbury and the Gregorian mission, who had been sent by Pope Gregory to replace England's pagan beliefs with Christianity.

Pietà (Gregorio Fernández)

The Pietà or Sexta Angustia (1616 - 1619) is a work of Baroque sculpture by Gregorio Fernández, housed in the National Museum of Sculpture in Valladolid, Spain. The statue was commissioned by the Illustrious Penitential Brotherhood of Our Lady of Anguish. It is one of the best known of the five sculptures of the same theme by the artist.

The sculpture shows the Virgin Mary holding up one hand with Christ's body slumped lifeless to the floor, by her feet. It was part of a "paso" which paraded in religious processions during Holly Week, together with the sculptures of the good thief and the impenitent thief, and Saint John and the Virgin Mary.

Torneo Argentino B

Torneo Argentino B was one of two leagues that form the fourth level of the Argentine football league system, made up of 100+ teams playing within eight regional zones across Argentina.

The other league at level four was – and still is – the Primera C Metropolitana, which is a competition for the numerous clubs in the city of Buenos Aires and the Greater Buenos Aires metropolitan area.

The Torneo Argentino B season would end with the top teams from each zone playing in cross-over playoffs, culminating with overall champions and a number of teams (varied by season) eligible for promotion to the following season's Torneo Argentino A competition.

The Torneo Argentino B was replaced with the similar Torneo Federal B for the 2014–15 season (itself reorganized as the nine zone Torneo Regional Federal Amateur for the 2018–19 season ), while the Primera C continued on as its tier four companion for the Buenos Aires area.

Torneo Gran Alternativa (2005)

The Torneo Gran Alternativa (2005) (Spanish for "Great Alternative Tournament") was a professional wrestling tournament held by the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL; Spanish for "World Wrestling Council"). The tournament was held on July 1, 2005, in Mexico City, Mexico at CMLL's main venue, Arena México. The Gran Alternativa tournament features tag teams composed of a rookie, or novato, and a veteran wrestler for an elimination tournament. The idea is to feature the novato wrestlers higher on the card that they usually work and help elevate one or more up the ranks. CMLL made the Torneo Gran Alternativa an annual event in 1995, only skipping it four times between 1994 and 2017. since it is a professional wrestling tournament, it is not won or lost competitively but instead by the decisions of the bookers of a wrestling promotion that is not publicized prior to the shows to maintain the illusion that professional wrestling is a competitive sport.

Umm Al Houl

Umm Al Houl (Arabic: ام الحول, romanized: Umm al Ḩūl) is an industrial district in Qatar located in the municipality of Al Wakrah.Al Wakrah while Mesaieed is to the south.

The government has designated the district as a free economic zone starting in early 2019.Hamad Port, is located here.

Etymology

The first constituent, 'umm', is the Arabic word for mother and is a common prefix used to denote geographical features. 'Houl' is an Arabic term reserved for a type of snare. Historically, birds of considerable size were commonly caught here using traps, lending the area its name.

Geography

Strategically located to the immediate north of the Mesaieed Industrial Area and approximately 20 kilometres (12 mi) south of Hamad International Airport, the area was chosen as a maritime hub for its suitable geography and close distance to Qatar's industrial and economic centers.

History

In 1895 the Sheikh of Abu Dhabi attempted to claim it as his western frontier but his claim was rejected by his superiors in the British government.

J.G. Lorimer's Gazetteer of the Persian Gulf gives an account of Umm Al Houl in 1908, referring to it as "Dohat [bay] Umm al-Hūl" and giving its location as 5 miles south of Al Wakrah. He goes on to state:

There was formerly a small settlement of the Sudan [Suwaidi] tribe here, but it has been abandoned in consequence of the badness of the water supply. Remains are visible of a village and fort.

Umm Al Houl Power Plant

After being launched in 2015, the Umm Al Houl Power Plant was commissioned in March 2018. The plant has the capacity to desalinate 136.5 million gallons of water daily, meeting approximately 40% of Qatar's requirement, as well as a generation capacity of 2,520 MW.

Transport

Currently, the elevated Umm Al Houl Metro Station is under construction, having been launched during Phase 2A. Once completed, it will be part of Doha Metro's Red Line South.
