Historic Commercial District

The C-H Historic Commercial District I is established to preserve and protect the Village downtown core which is the historic and retail center of the Village at and near the intersection of Broadview Road and Streetsboro Road. This purpose shall be accomplished in this District by preserving the historic character and architectural integrity of the existing buildings in the District and setting forth guidelines for new development. The regulations contained in this District are intended to encourage a predominance of compact, neighborhood and pedestrian scale retail, service and office uses in the Village core. New commercial and retail development will be required to reflect the overall appearance, form, pattern, design and scale of this historic district. Pedestrian ways and bikeways are encouraged. This District is established to provide for commercial uses principally to accommodate the sale of convenience retail goods and personal services purchased frequently for daily or weekly needs, and smaller business office buildings, which do not generate traffic congestion or an excessive need for parking. In addition to the standards in this Chapter, all new structures, additions and renovations in the Commercial Historic Districts I and II must comply with the architectural standards found in Section 1181.29, Historic District Overlay.
