[Amended 4-22-2008 by L.L. No. 4-2008]
The purpose of the Limited Business (LB) District
is to provide an opportunity to accommodate limited business activity
along highway corridors, but in areas outside the hamlet's central
business areas, that is consistent with the rural and historic character
of surrounding areas and uses. Emphasis will be placed on review of
design features so that existing and future uses will not detract
from surrounding uses. The additional uses must generate low amounts
of traffic and be designed to protect the residential and rural character
of the area.

shall be used and no building or part of a building shall be erected
or altered which is arranged, intended or designed to be used, in
whole or in part, for any uses except the following:
