of the 1987 Code)]
All areas delineated in the Zoning Map of the City of Camden
of 1978 as commercial, industrial, manufacturing, City center flexible
development and highway interchange/mass transit-related flexible
development zones, respectively, shall be included and are now delineated
as fire limit districts within the City of Camden, to be utilized
for the purposes expressed by the State Uniform Construction Code
Act, the regulations promulgated thereunder and all relevant subcodes
adopted thereby.
All mixed use zones delineated in the Zoning Map of the City
of Camden of 1978 shall be included and are now delineated as fire
limit districts to the extent stated below:
A.
Rules concerning developed areas in mixed use zones.
(1)
General. The fire limits in mixed use zones shall include all closely
built blocks of predominantly business or commercial occupancy meeting
both of the following criteria.
(2)
Criteria.
(a)
A block or part block shall be considered closely built if at
least 50% of the ground area is built upon and 50% or more of the
built-on area is devoted to commercial occupancy, except that where
the average height of buildings is 2 1/2 stories or more, a block
or part block shall be considered closely built if the ground area
built upon is at least 40%.
B.
Rules concerning developing areas in mixed use zones are:
(1)
The block or area where a definite trend toward commercial development
