Certain types of commercial activities either require waterfront
locations or are enhanced by such locations. Such activities usually
have special requirements for physical design, layout, and supporting
facilities and services which may be incompatible with other uses.
The Business-1 District is intended to accommodate these uses with
special needs. As a general rule, uses which do not require waterfront
location, or which do not complement uses requiring waterfront location,
are not permitted in the B-1 District. District regulations are designed
to afford adequate protection to the natural environment.
The following uses shall be permitted subject to all other requirements
of this chapter as a matter of right in the Business-1 District (B-1):
