[Amended 11-5-1997]
The intent and purpose of the Neighborhood Service
Zone and the following regulations are to identify areas within existing
or proposed residential neighborhoods where the location of low-intensity
commercial and service uses would be beneficial to residents of these
neighborhoods and prevent the proliferation of such uses in a scattered
and uncontrolled manner. The district regulations are designed to
promote convenience shopping and the stability of retail development
by encouraging continuous retail frontage and by prohibiting large
service and manufacturing establishments which tend to break continuity.
