The C-2 community commercial district accommodates commercial, mixed- use and office facilities that serve the needs of markets ranging from an area of several neighborhoods to the overall region. While permitted commercial and office uses are generally compatible with nearby residential areas, traffic and operating characteristics of some uses may have an impact on adjacent residential neighborhoods. Use regulations may require a conditional use permit for these selected uses. C-2 districts are most appropriate at intersections of collector and arterial streets, at the junction of several neighborhoods, along major commercial or mixed use corridors, or at substantial commercial subcenters. The district also permits other uses with similar urban impacts to substantial commercial development.
