The district names and map symbols are intended to provide a general
indication of what is allowed in the district by denoting the commercial
or office orientation of the district.
A.
Neighborhood Commercial. The purpose of the Neighborhood Commercial
District is to encourage smaller-scaled commercial development, compatible
with the scale and intensity of adjacent residential and noncommercial
sites, and to support the goals and objectives contained in the Unified
Comprehensive Plan. This district allows for commercial operations
along collector and arterial type streets offering convenience shopping
and services for adjacent residential areas.
B.
Central Business. The purpose of the Central Business District is
to foster a concentration of small-scale, mixed use activity and to
support the goals and objectives contained in the Unified Comprehensive
Plan. The CB District is established to maintain and enhance the traditional
mix of retail, office, civic and residential uses within the core
of the Villages. Development in this district should reinforce compact,
pedestrian-oriented development and preservation of traditional historic
character.
C.
General Commercial. The purpose of the General Commercial District
is to encourage commercial development and to support the goals and
objectives contained in the Unified Comprehensive Plan. The GC District
is established to provide areas for intensive commercial activities
that primarily depend upon a large volume of vehicular traffic and
serve the daily shopping needs of the community-at-large and surrounding
areas. This district encourages the application of site design and
buffering techniques to mitigate the impacts of commercial operations
and traffic on adjacent uses and the traveling public.
D.
Commercial Office. The purpose of the Commercial Office District
is to accommodate office and nonretail activity in a manner that protects
and enhances existing residential neighborhoods. The CO District permits
a mix of residential and office type uses along primary and secondary
thoroughfares that may not be suitable for single-family living due
to increasing traffic volumes. These volumes create an environment
suitable for certain multifamily and office uses that can exist in
close proximity to neighborhoods without adversely affecting the residential
environment.
Uses are allowed in commercial and office zoning districts in
accordance with Table 21-2.
A.
Uses identified with a "P" in Table 21-2 are permitted as-of-right
in the subject zoning district, subject to compliance with all other
applicable standards of this Zoning Ordinance.
B.
Uses identified with a "SP" in Table 21-2 may be allowed if reviewed
and approved in accordance with the special permit procedures contained
in Article 66.
C.
Uses not listed and those identified with a "-" are expressly prohibited.
