The purpose of this chapter is to promote and maintain a distinct
community character and a diverse retail base. This chapter is intended
to encourage retail elements that promote variety while contributing
to and maintaining the city's small-town atmosphere and to prevent
the proliferation of businesses that create a homogenized retail experience.
(Ord. 431 § 4, 2018)
A formula retail clearance is transferrable to a new business
in the same land use category, located at the exact same location
or tenant space, so long as the square footage of the gross floor
area is not increased.
