[Ord. 5/26/1987, § 1100; as amended by Ord. 195, 9/19/2000, Art. III]
a.
The Commercial-Office District is intended to provide a wide range of commercial and service uses for the needs of local and area residents. Office uses are also permitted in this district. Appropriate design standards will ensure that future development is compatible with existing commercial and office uses.
b.
With the Commercial-Office District, a building may be erected, altered or used, and a lot or premises may be used when in conformance with the conditions of this chapter and the specific use, area and design regulations of this district.
c.
Single family detached dwellings which existed with the Commercial-Office District prior to adoption of this amendment shall, for all purposes, be treated as permitted, not nonconforming uses. It is the intent of the chapter to eliminate the need for the owners of the existing dwellings to obtain special relief in order to make additions to, or to add accessory buildings to their residential properties where the only reason for special relief would be the nonconformity of the single family detached dwelling uses.
