15-38-1: PURPOSE:
The purpose of each zoning category within the commercial district is described below:
   A.   Neighborhood Commercial (C-1, CP-1):
      1.   District Characteristics: The neighborhood commercial zone (C-1 and CP-1) is intended to be located on corner properties of areas, which are generally residential in character. The site area is large enough to contain all the parking and other needs of the commercial without impacting the surrounding residential areas.
      2.   Purpose Of District: The neighborhood commercial zone provides for the sale and supply of daily living needs for the people in the neighborhood. It also provides areas for small development which is compatible to the surrounding residential neighborhood.
   B.   Community Commercial (C-2, CP-2):
      1.   District Characteristics: The community commercial zone may be established in those areas that are appropriate for general retail sales. This district should be created in areas having access to major streets and a low likelihood of conflict with other uses as generally it will be an edge to residential development. The properties are large enough to have a low potential for adverse impacts on the overall visual image of key areas such as major streets and including entryways into the community.
      2.   Purpose Of District: The community commercial zone provides, in addition to the sale of goods for neighborhoods, a wider range of facilities for the sale of retail goods and personal services for the major segments of the community.
   C.   Regional Commercial (C-3, CP-3):
      1.   District Characteristics: The regional commercial zone is established on larger parcels of property which have access to major roads. The zone would be located along streets which are capable of handling traffic generated by these types of uses.
      2.   Purpose Of District: The regional commercial zone provides for the sale and supply of the complete range of retail and wholesale goods, entertainment and personal services for the metropolitan area and, also, a center for recreational entertainment and cultural activities for the entire region.

15-38-3: PROTECTION OF ADJOINING RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES:
   A.   Purpose Of Screening: The intent of the screening requirements provided herein is to protect residential zones from the potential impacts commonly associated with commercial uses, such as lights, noise, increased pedestrian and automobile traffic, invasions of privacy and physical intrusions on property.
   B.   Screening Requirement: Whenever development abuts property in a residential zone, screening is required to protect residential properties from the potential impacts of lights, noise, increased pedestrian traffic, invasions of privacy and physical intrusions on property. Based on the applicant's site plan, the community development department will determine the potential impacts resulting from location, site design and layout as they relate to the areas of concern identified in table A of this section. The applicant may then choose from among those screening options in table A of this section that will mitigate all of the identified impacts. The specific standard for each option is identified in table B of this section. Determinations may be appealed to the planning commission. If there are no potential impacts, screening is not required.
   C.   Mitigation of High Impact Uses: There are certain permitted or conditional uses in C-2 and CP-2 zones that are known to have a greater impact on surrounding uses than other uses allowed in the zone. When these high impact uses are proposed on any lot within one hundred feet (100') of residentially zoned property they are subject to additional mitigation requirements that will help reduce their impact to the residential property (see Table C in this section). These requirements do not apply if the residentially zoned property is developed with a nonresidential use.
