Bed and breakfast inns are unique, semi-commercial operations that adapt a residential environment into a lodging concept, limited in scope and operation. The use is clearly of a commercial nature, but may at times be more in keeping with a residential environment. The purpose of this Chapter is to provide a systematic set of requirements to ensure that such operations, if appropriate for a residential or commercial area, shall not adversely impact adjacent uses as a result of the commercial aspects of the structure and property. Bed and breakfast inns shall be subordinate to the principal use of a structure as a single-family dwelling. The intent of this Chapter is not to provide an opportunity for the establishment of an intensive commercial lodging business, which use would be considered appropriate within an intensive commercial or planned commercial zoning district, but rather in certain locations to provide a limited commercial use in a residential or commercial district.
