The business district regulations are intended to govern the location, intensity, and method of development of the business and commercial uses needed to serve the citizens of the village and its trade area. The regulations of each district are designed to provide for groupings of business and commercial uses that are compatible in scope of services and method of operations. All business uses are contained in the three business district classifications set out in this chapter and in Chapters 17.32 and 17.40.

(§3.61(part) of Ord. dated 10/24/77: (part) of Ord. dated 11/2/65).

The B-2, business district is intended to provide areas to be used by retail or service establishments to supply convenience goods or personal services for the daily needs of the residents living in adjacent residential neighborhoods. The district is designed to encourage shopping centers with planned off-street parking and loading and to provide for existing individual or small groups of local stores. This district is normally located on primary or secondary thoroughfares, is relatively small in size, and has bulk standards comparable to the bulk standards for low-density residential districts.
