Within the Atlantic Beach Overlay District, permitted uses, prohibited uses, and uses allowed by special use permit issued by the Zoning Board of Review within the Atlantic Beach Overlay District are defined in § 602 of this chapter subject to the following additional requirements:
(A) Buildings containing a motel or hotel use or other residential use, except single-family and two-family residential, must include commercial use(s) (e.g. retail, office, restaurant, and the like) on the first floor. Such commercial use must have a separate exterior entrance and operate separately and apart from the motel, hotel, or residential use. The floor area devoted to such first-floor commercial use shall equal at least 75% of the total first-floor area. In those locations where elevating of the ground floor greater than six feet above post-development grade is necessary to comply with state or federally regulated floodplain building requirements, this requirement is waived.
(B) The number of transient lodging rooms (e.g. hotel, motel, timeshare, and the like) within the District shall be limited to the number existing plus the number in the development approval or permitting processes at the time of the adoption of this section, which is 260.
