These zones have been established as districts in which the primary use of the land is for planned and integrated commercial and service uses. It is intended that these zones shall be characterized by a harmonious grouping of a variety of stores, shops, office buildings, or other permitted uses in an organized development. These zones have also been established to create new development which is characterized by well landscaped frontages, safe access and egress, proper parking design, coordinated site planning, and buildings which follow the objectives of the City Master Plan and resort architectural requirements. Emphasis in the approval of plans in the C-2 zone shall be to protect the appearance of the entrances to the City. Development in the C-3 zone is intended to create a shopping and financial center for the City and surrounding territory. Another objective of the commercial zones is to mitigate potential negative impacts upon residential zones caused by commercial activity. The City commercial zones are surrounded by residential areas on all sides and buffering restrictions are necessary.
