LC, Limited Commercial District: The LC, Limited Commercial District is designed to accommodate low-intensity commercial, office type professional and administrative services necessary for the normal conduct of community activities. A limited range of convenience and service businesses are permitted to serve nearby residents. The districts may serve as a transition between residential and non-residential districts and provide transitions between major thoroughfares and residential districts.

B-1, Central Business District: The B-1, Central Business District is designed to promote continuation and enhancement of the historic, small-scale, pedestrian oriented, low vehicular traffic generating, retail environment of Downtown Dundee and the Tecumseh Street corridor. Uses are intended to be limited to a size and scale that is compatible with the historic character of the downtown and the surrounding residential neighborhoods. The district allows for a mixture of uses with the intent of maintaining retail on the first floor, with residential and offices on upper floors. This mixture of uses is intended to create more vitality and strengthen both the downtown and Tecumseh Street as the gateway to downtown. As the downtown is on both the federal and state Register of Historic Places, this district is further intended to protect the significant historic, architectural, and cultural resources that are a major asset to the overall community.

C.

B-2, General Business District: The B-2, General Business District is intended to provide for a variety of commercial and service uses, including more intensive commercial uses not permitted in the B-1, Central Business District and B-3, Tecumseh Street District. The B-2 district is intended to permit commercial establishments that cater to the convenience and comparison-shopping needs of Village residents. Because of the variety of business types permitted in the district, special attention must be focused on site layout, building design, landscaping, vehicular circulation, and coordination of site features between adjoining sites to ensure compatibility with the overall historic and high-quality character of the Village. Furthermore, these uses are concentrated so as to avoid undue congestion to feeder streets by reducing the number of entrances and exits onto major thoroughfares to promote smooth traffic flow at freeway interchanges and major road intersections.

D.

B-4, Interchange Business District: The B-4, Interchange Business District is designed to accommodate a wide variety of expressway related uses to meet the needs of the citizens and businesses in the Dundee area, and the needs of motorists along U.S. 23. Uses permitted in the B-4 district are generally characterized by those not considered appropriate for the LC, Limited Commercial, B-1, Central Business District, or B-2, General Business District, or B-3, Tecumseh Street District, due to traffic generation, amount of parking required or areas and scale of buildings. Uses that are considered to generate particularly high traffic volumes or other external impacts are treated as uses permissible on special land use approval to ensure the requested locations are appropriate for those uses.
