C-2B
.01 INTENT AND DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT
To encourage the development of commingled retail, service, and office uses within the
community. The C-2B District is an intensive commercial classification in which the
commingling or many retail, service, and office uses are permitted. Structures located in
this district may vary from freestanding building to larger community shopping centers.
Shopping centers that minimize curb cuts and signage, while maximizing aesthetics, are
the preferred type of development in this zone. As this classification presents compatibility
problems with less intensive classification, great care must be taken in mapping the C-2B
zone. Normally, this district is located only at the convergence of major arterial
thoroughfares.
C-2B
.02 PRINCIPAL USES AND STRUCTURES PERMITTED
Permitted uses of land or buildings, as hereinafter enumerated, may be permitted in the
C-2B District only in accordance with conditions specified. Only those uses specifically
listed hereunder may be considered permitted uses, and no building or lot may be
devoted to any use other than a use permitted hereunder, with the exception of:
Principal Uses and Structures Permitted as listed in the following Table C.

.04 SPECIAL EXCEPTION USES
Special exceptions, as hereinafter listed in the following Table C, may be allowed subject
to the issuance of special use permits in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.07.
Special exceptions may be required to meet more restrictive site and structure provisions
if the City Council, acting upon the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission, determines that such requirements are necessary to the public, health,
safety and general welfare.

.05 AREA REQUIREMENTS

districts that immediately abuts or is directly across the street from land zoned in the C-2B
