Conditional Zoning District - Regional Business District

The intent of the Regional Business B-2 District is to provide for the proper site layout and development of larger format or larger structure size business uses, including big box stores and automobile dealers. It is also designed to provide for the appropriate location and design of auto-oriented uses that meet the needs of the motoring public or that rely on pass-by traffic.; The Conditional zoning CZ District option is established to address situations where a particular land use would be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the objectives of this Ordinance and only a specific use or multiple specific uses are proposed and appropriate for the development of a site. The district is primarily intended for use at transitions between zoning districts of dissimilar character where a particular use or uses, with restrictive conditions to safeguard adjacent land uses, can create a more orderly transition benefiting all affected parties and the community at-large. It is intended only for firm development proposals and should not be used for tentative projects without definitive plans.
