A. 
The purpose of the B-1 Lakeside Business District, as supported by the vision, goals and objectives of the Village of Liverpool Comprehensive Plan 2025 and the corresponding Downtown Redevelopment Plan,[1] requires mixed-use development to create a compact, walkable, pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use environment built to the scale of the pedestrian in order to promote greater pedestrian activity along buildings fronting the street, public parks and the waterfront promenade along Onondaga Lake. The B-1 District is a place where people live and work and where visitors come to spend all or part of each day to rediscover our many waterfront attractions.
