Service Commercial District

This section applies to the CS Service Commercial District. The purpose of this section is to provide for heavy commercial land uses along major arterial streets where a mixture of commercial light industrial type activities has or is expected to occur. This designation accommodates those heavy commercial land uses generally not appropriate to the general commercial area. It is intended to attract both indoor commercial uses and some selected outdoor uses which are compatible with existing or future adjoining activities. It is further meant to serve in some cases as a buffer zone between more restrictive commercial, industrial and residential areas, and to screen residential areas from noises generated by the city's transportation corridors. It is intended that this district be used in appropriate locations along select major arterial streets such as West Inyokern Road and East Ridgecrest Boulevard in such a manner as to enhance the entrances to the city. All uses wherein the open storage of appropriate materials is required shall provide for the screening of such materials from the public view by an opaque fence of no less than 6 ft in height.
