B-1 COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT
The regulations set forth in this Article or set forth elsewhere in this Appendix A when referred to in this Article, are the district regulations in the B-1 community commercial district. The B-1 district is designed to provide a complete range of products and services to large geographic areas. The B-1 commercial business district is intended to permit retail business and service uses which are needed to serve the community. In order to promote such business development as is appropriate in each area, uses are prohibited which would create hazards, offensive and loud noises, vibration, smoke, glare, heavy truck traffic or late hours of operation. It is also the intent of this district to encourage the concentration of local business to the mutual advantage of both the consumers and merchants. Such concentration will promote the best use of land at certain strategic locations and avoid the continuance of marginal strip business development along major streets. As such, it should permit a sufficient size site for integrated off street parking, landscaping and loading and be adjacent to a major thoroughfare to permit safe and efficient vehicular traffic circulation. Within this district the traffic flow and parking must be planned so as not to have a detrimental impact on adjacent residential property. Development within this district should be consistent with the locations and goals as provided in the Village's Comprehensive Plan. (Ord. 03-1155, 3-18-2003)
The minimum lot area for lots in the B-1 district is twenty thousand (20,000) square feet with a minimum of eighty feet (80') of frontage except:
Community center: 25,000
Planned unit developments: 2 acres
Planned unit developments (commercial): 2 acres
