ARTICLE XIV. CBD CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT
§ 82-286 INTENT.
   The CBD Central Business District is intended to permit those uses which provide for a variety of retail stores and related activities, and for office buildings and service establishments which occupy the prime frontages in the Central Business District and which serve the consumer population beyond the corporate boundaries of the city. The district regulations are designed to promote convenient pedestrian shopping and the stability of retail development by encouraging a continuous retail frontage and by prohibiting automotive related services and nonretail uses which tend to break up such continuity.
