The purpose of this district is primarily intended to maintain
the larger areas of public and institutional uses and facilities existing
within the City. This district accommodates for wide range of uses
and facilities owned, operated, and associated with Lock Haven University
and provides for other compatible public, service, and institutional-type
uses and facilities, including schools, hospitals, cemeteries, parks,
schools, places of worship, and other supportive services that, due
to the large grouping or intensive nature of such uses and facilities,
may not otherwise be compatible in other districts or neighboring
properties and uses.
[Amended 12-13-2010 by Ord. No. 870; 7-11-2016 by Ord. No. 955]
Only the following uses are permitted within this district, provided that in addition to the supplemental regulations for specific uses established in Article
