It is the intent of this article that use regulations and density
controls be established for planned business districts which may be
added to the city through annexation. The Planned Business District
provides for mixed-use business and industrial park developments along
regional arterial roads in keeping with the environmental characteristics
of areas most suitable for consideration for annexation as development
occurs in future years. It is the intent of this article that developments
in areas where these regulations are applicable respect the character
and density of surrounding areas. The PB Use District use and density
control regulations are intended to apply to new zoning designations
subject to full review and approval by the common council of the city.
They are applicable to any area which may be annexed in the future
by the city where business development will meet the objectives of
this article.
