to the primary residential use and approved as part of an overall
subdivision or land development plan.
D.
Churches, synagogues or similar places of worship.
E.
Community facility uses by special exception.
F.
No-impact home-based business, unless such use is
prohibited or restricted by virtue of any deed restriction, covenant
