[Ord. No. 3907 §1, 6-22-2015]
A. 
The purpose of the service revitalization "SR" regulations are to encourage development of small non-residentially zoned parcels (less than one (1) acre) by allowing for a greater variety of uses and building types than would normally be permitted and allow greater flexibility in site planning, so as to promote service oriented growth within specified locations. It is intended that service revitalization developments should be well integrated in terms of land use, functional systems, and major design elements such as architecture, access and infrastructure. Design standards should be supportive of a cohesive development while accentuating the sense of community.
B. 
Service revitalization development regulations provide the City with flexibility in consideration of service oriented uses and enable it to adjust development regulations to particular site conditions. Service revitalization developments may be developed only in accordance with approved site plans and conditions enumerated in ordinances for particular developments.
C. 
Unless specifically provided herein, the regulations and performance standards pertaining to the Campus Office "CO" Zoning District apply for all uses in the service revitalization developments.
D. 
Interpretation. The following standards are intended to supplement those set forth in Article VIII and Article XI of this Chapter. Only where particular specifications are set forth herein do those specifications override those set forth in Article VIII and Article XI of this Chapter.
