The purpose of this district is to provide locations for the development of community shopping and business areas which serve a major segment of the community population. In addition to a variety of retail goods and services, these areas may typically feature a number of large traffic generators that require access to major thoroughfares. While these areas are usually characterized by indoor operations, certain permitted uses may have limited outdoor activities as specified. Access to this district should be directly from an arterial or collector street and not through a residential district.
