      (3)   To promote the general convenience, safety, welfare and prosperity of commercial developments;
      (4)   To lessen vehicular movement in the vicinity of intensive pedestrian traffic to promote safety and convenience;
      (5)   To provide regulations and standards for the development of accessory off-street parking facilities in accordance with the policies and objectives of the City of Fairlawn;
      (6)   To provide off-street parking and stacking facilities in proportion to the need created by each use; and,
      (7)   To provide for accommodation of vehicles in a functionally and aesthetically satisfactory manner and to minimize external effects on adjacent land uses.
