   This chapter provides regulations applicable to development and land uses in the Office and Office Research Park Districts established by 16.06.010 (Zoning Districts Established). The purposes of the individual Office and Office Research Park zoning districts and the manner in which they are applied are as follows:

   A.   Office (O) District. The Office zoning district is applied to areas appropriate primarily for office uses with commercial uses (financial, hotel, personal services, restaurant, etc.) oriented to serve the customers and employees of the office uses, and limited community services to serve the residents of the city. The Office zoning district is consistent with the Office and Research Park land use designation of the general plan; and

   B.   Office Research Park (ORP) District. The ORP zoning district is applied to areas appropriate primarily for office, medical, business campuses with associate research and development facilities. Commercial uses (financial, hotel, retail, personal service, and restaurant, etc.) are intended as accessory or support uses for the employees and customers of the office, business, and medical uses with their associate and research and development operations. The ORP zoning district is consistent with the Office and Research Park land use designation of the general plan.
