restrooms
Facilities primarily serving toilet use, often with washing or changing amenities, where restrooms are a main building function.

Restrooms are primarily toilet facilities, often with additional accommodation for washing, showering, changing clothes, or changing diapers. Because the vast majority of buildings include restrooms, listing them as a side usage would add little information; therefore this is only allowed as a main usage, and is applied to buildings where it is the primary function.
Toilet provision is the primary function; washing and changing facilities can accompany it. Ordinary restroom space within a building of another main use has the exclusion stated above.
Female, male, and unisex restrooms distinguish the designated users of those facilities. They retain the same requirement concerning a primary building function.
