Community Commercial-Limited Use Overlay Subdistrict

Community Commercial: The C-2 community commercial district is intended to create, preserve and enhance areas with a wide range of retail sales, commercial services, and office establishments. Typical development types include individual commercial buildings on small and large sites, community shopping centers, and some outdoor retail uses. This district is typically located along highways and arterials. This district also includes some development which does not strictly fit the description of commercial but also does not merit a separate zoning district. The C-2 district is intended to be consistent with the commercial and mixed use designations of the comprehensive plan.; Limited Use Overlay: Zoning strives to create a list of uses that are generally compatible with one another in a single district. In limited circumstances, however, some of the uses permitted in a base zoning district are allowable or desirable in a particular location while others may not be. Circumstances might include topographic constraints on the site, differing characteristics of surrounding uses, or limits on local facilities, such as street capacity, that are not addressed in capital improvement plans.; The limited use overlay is designed to allow those uses that are or can be made compatible in a certain district, while prohibiting or limiting those uses that are incompatible.; It is the intention that limited use overlays be used sparingly and only where unusual circumstances warrant.
