General Commercial District

The general commercial district is intended to allow for medium to high intensity uses with a wide range of retail, wholesale commercial, entertainment, office, services, and professional uses. Development should be pedestrian-oriented, but is expected to be auto-accommodating as well. This district should be applied to medium to large sites adjacent to other commercial uses, office uses or higher density residential development. When located adjacent to single-family residential, vehicles using the commercial site should not have a direct impact on the entrances to the neighborhood, but pedestrian connections should be provided. GC sites should be located near freeways, along arterials, or at major intersections. This district is also intended to support the development of urban villages that offer a mixture of uses including retail, offices, services, entertainment, and commercial within the same site with connections between those uses. Development should provide a pleasant visual atmosphere for motorists, transit users, and pedestrians as well as for the other businesses located within the zoning district.
