Article XVIII-A. "CC" COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT |
§ 20-741. Intent.
(a)
The intent of the Community Commercial District is to provide for moderate to large-sized commercial development. These large-scale commercial and office users need high visibility along arterial roads. While smaller scale ancillary commercial uses may be permitted integral to the principal use, the primary use of a building shall be medium to large-type users with a minimum tenant space of 15,000 square feet. The intent of the district is to accommodate larger uses. The creation of multi-tenant, small user, strip centers is prohibited.
(b)
Location criteria for community commercial uses are: Access to arterial and collector streets, preferably at intersections with collector and arterial streets; moderate to large-sized sites; public water and sewer service; environmental features such as soils and topography suitable for compact development; and adequate buffering by physical features or adjacent uses to protect nearby residential development.
(c)
The total building area on a single level or floor for an individual use shall be no more than 65,000 square feet.
