The C-3 or Community Shopping Center Zone is intended for planned shopping centers which serve several neighborhoods and where the land and compatible retail stores and associated facilities are designed and developed together as an integrated unit using modern site planning techniques. The primary tenant will usually be a junior department or variety store, and the center will provide not only convenience goods, such as food, drugs, and personal services, but also shopping goods, such as apparel and furniture, as well as professional services and recreation. Shopping centers of this size will be designed and located so as to minimize traffic congestion on public highways and streets in the vicinity and to best fit the general land use pattern of the area to be served.
