[Ord. 639, 7/14/1975]
The tourist Commercial District is hereby established to provide
areas in which the principal use of land is devoted to commercial
establishments and resort areas which cater specifically to the needs
of tourist-oriented trade. The intent herein is to reserve lands,
which because of particular location and natural features are adopted
for tourist uses, and to encourage the development of these locations
with such uses and in such manner as to minimize traffic hazards and
interference with other uses in the vicinity.

A site plan for the proposed complex must be presented to the
Planning Commission, the county planner and the County Engineer for
approval and all uses must be compatible with existing uses within

location, the Planning Commission may require service roads, design
criteria to fit the site, structure use approval, and circulation
recognizing principles of civic design, land use planning and landscape
architecture.
