(A) Statement of purpose. The General Business District is intended to permit a wider range of business and entertainment activities than are normally permitted in the Neighborhood District. The permitted uses would serve not only nearby residential areas, but also areas further away by types of business and services usually found in major shopping centers. These uses would generate larger volumes of vehicular traffic, would need more off-street parking and loading and would require more planning to integrate the districts with adjacent residential areas.
(B) Permitted uses. Any use listed as permissible in Appendix A, Schedule of Uses, attached to the ordinance from which this chapter is derived, adopted by reference in § 153.272, is permitted.
(C) Conditional uses. Any use listed as conditional in Appendix A, Schedule of Uses, attached to the ordinance from which this chapter is derived, adopted by reference in § 153.272, is permitted as a conditional use.
(D) Standards.
(1) Building site area. There is no minimum required building site area.
(2) Building site width. There is no minimum required building site width.
(3) Building site coverage. The maximum building site coverage by all buildings on the site shall not exceed 55% of the total lot area.
(4) Building height limit. No structure shall exceed 50 feet in height.
(5) Setback requirements. The minimum requirements for yards shall be as follows:
(a) Front yard: 40 feet;
(b) Rear yard: 20 feet; and
(c) Side yard: seven feet.
(E) General requirements. All general requirements that are in effect in the B-1 Neighborhood Business District are applicable.
