LOCAL BUSINESS DISTRICT (B-1)
The intent of this district is to provide for a limited number of existing or potential low intensity office, business, and commercial facilities. The provisions of this district are intended to permit the continuance of existing and compatible business and commercial developments which benefit from being in close proximity to each other; to avoid the development of any large general strip commercial or business developments; to encourage such future low intensity development to occur on vacant land where the natural characteristics of such land are suitable for this type of development; to avoid undue traffic congestion on minor streets by directing such developments to abut upon or have relative close access to major transportation arteries; and to discourage any encroachment by industrial, residential, or other uses considered capable of adversely affecting the localized commercial and business characteristics of the district.
