The purpose of the C-P zone is to provide for low-density, park-like development of office uses suitable for locations in proximity to similar commercial/industrial development or to low- and medium-density residential uses, in areas where it would implement the land use recommendations of approved and adopted master or sector plans, or in areas where such uses are appropriate.
It is further the purpose of the C-P zone to:
(a) Create campus-like settings for offices in locations where such uses are compatible with existing and planned land uses in the surrounding area and where appropriate roadway access can be provided;
(b) Maximize the amount of green area by limiting building coverage and encouraging structured parking; and
(c) Regulate building height and setbacks to ensure that there is a balance between height and open space, as well as a skyscape that is harmonious with the architecture and land use of the surrounding area.
In order to secure development of this type, the standards prescribed herein must be met.
The fact that an application complies with all specific requirements and purposes set forth herein shall not be deemed to create a presumption that the application is, in fact, compatible with surrounding land uses, and, in itself, shall not be sufficient to require the granting of any application.
