It is the further objective by expanding the permissible floor space and building height, and by including additional permissible uses, to intentionally concentrate within given areas the maximum variety of facilities for the dispensing of commodities and rendering of services to the entire city and its environs. It is recognized that the characteristics of the use permitted in this classification produce an environment undesirable for residential purposes while, in the opposite direction, residential uses in a commercial area tend to decrease the capacity of commercial enterprises to render maximum services and decrease public convenience for utilizing the services rendered. For these reasons, residential uses are excluded from this classification. Public utility installations, being governed by circumstances related to geographical areas and uses to be served, are also permitted.
