[Prior code § 17.0312(1)]
This district is intended to permit large and small scale commercial
development which is compatible with the desired overall community
character of the area in general. Significant areas of landscaping
are required in this district to ensure that this effect is achieved.
A wide range of office, retail, and lodging land uses are permitted
within this district. In order to ensure a minimum of disruption to
residential development, no development within this district shall
take direct access to a local residential street or a residential
collector street.
Rationale. This district is intended to provide the principal
zoning district for commercial development which occurs after the
adoption of this title. The standards of this district are designed
to provide a clear distinction from the urban commercial and central
commercial districts in terms of permitted intensity of development,
treatment of outdoor sales, and required green space areas. The desired
suburban community character of the development is attained through
the landscape surface area ratio (LSR) requirements. Together, these
requirements ensure that the desired community character is maintained
as long as the planned business district designation is retained,
regardless of how much development occurs within that area.
