The Central Business District is a concentrated area for the principal office buildings, service establishments, and retail store serving the City and region. The standards herein recognize the need for a compact central business district which favors pedestrians with parking facilities for downtown shoppers and employees in economical and efficient locations.
Since the Central Business District serves a special and unique function, it is the intent of this ordinance that the CBD, classification be applied to one contiguous and continuous area. Before additional areas are considered for inclusion in the CBD, consideration should be given to the appropriateness of alternate designations.
