The McCall comprehensive plan details the goals, objectives, actions and policies for the city's commercial areas, including the preservation of community character and enhancement of existing commercial zones. It is the purpose of this chapter to implement the plan's vision through development regulations that allow for a variety of appropriately scaled retail, service, and mixed use opportunities for residents and visitors to McCall.
(A) Neighborhood Commercial (NC) Zone: The NC land use designation is the least intense commercial designation in the city, and is intended to provide retail, service, and mixed use establishments that are within easy walking distance for area residents. These small scale commercial uses should be conveniently located and integrated within neighborhoods and designed to complement the pedestrian environment of the neighborhoods in which they are located. This zone allows residential uses at a maximum density of that allowed by the average of the adjacent residential zones.
(B) Community Commercial (CC) Zone: The CC land use designation supports general commercial uses that serve the greater community of McCall. These retail, service, and mixed use establishments may be automobile oriented and require a larger lot area; provided, that they are designed to safely and comfortably accommodate those arriving by foot, bicycle, or transit. This zone allows residential uses at a maximum of forty (40) dwelling units per acre.
(C) Central Business District (CBD) Zone: The CBD land use designation is intended to preserve and enhance the McCall downtown area as the historic heart of McCall, and the primary tourist and pedestrian activity area of the community. A variety of retail, service, and mixed use establishments associated with the traditional main street environment are permitted. This zone allows residential uses at a maximum of sixty (60) dwellings per acre. (Ord. 821, 2-23-2006, eff. 3-16-2006)
