1151.13 PC PLANNED COMMERCIAL DISTRICT.
   (a)   Policies Underlying Use of Zone. This district is provided in recognition that many commercial establishments seek to develop within unified commercial areas, usually under single ownership and control, and typically called "shopping centers". Within the premises of the zone, such centers would have all necessary services and facilities comprehensively provided in accordance with an approved development plan. Provisions of this zone are formulated to achieve harmoniously designated structures upon a well landscaped site, achieving a high degree of pedestrian-vehicular separation, all of which would be compatible with surrounding land uses.
   (b)   Permitted Uses. Those uses included as permitted and accessory uses in OR, CB, CCD, HS and GB Business Districts.
   (c)   Arrangement of Commercial Uses. Commercial buildings and establishments shall be planned as groups having common parking areas and common ingress and egress points in order to reduce the number of potential accident locations at intersections with thoroughfares.
   The plan of the project shall provide for the integrated and harmonious design of buildings, and for adequate and properly arranged facilities for internal traffic circulation, landscaping, and such other features and facilities as may be necessary to make the project attractive and efficient from the standpoint of the adjoining and surrounding existing or potential developments.
   (d)   Area Requirements. The minimum land area for a Planned Commercial Development should be two (2) acres.
   (e)   Structure Spacing. A setback of fifty (50) feet shall be provided along the entire perimeter of the development, except where it adjoins a Business or Industrial District in which case setback and screening requirements shall be at the discretion of the Planning Commission. Where situated adjacent to a residentially zoned area, a minimum of twenty (20) feet along the exterior property line shall be planted with an evergreen hedge or dense planting of evergreen shrubs not less than four (4) feet in height at the time of planting. Screening facilities shall not obscure traffic visibility within (50) feet of an intersection.
   Vehicular access through such landscaped strip when adjacent to residential areas shall be permitted only for convenience of residents of adjoining residential areas, and not for use by the general public.
   (f)   Parking and Loading Requirements. See Chapter 1159.
   (g)   Signs. See Chapter 1161 for size and location of permitted signs.
