18.22.010: PURPOSE:

   A.   General Commercial District C1: To provide areas in appropriate locations where a combination of business, retail commerce, public, quasi-public, office, multiple-family uses, entertainment, and related activities may be established, maintained and protected.
      1.   All uses allowed as indicated in section 18.22.030 of this chapter.
      2.   Any parcel larger than one acre at the time of passage hereof may be divided or developed only under planned unit development approval. No new lot smaller than three-fourths (3/4) acre may be created, except as provided for in a PUD.
      3.   Every conditional use permit and every planned unit development approval shall be based primarily on how the development, as proposed in the application, will contribute to compatibility and mutual private and public benefit from existing, proposed and potential buildings and uses in the area; the efficient, effective and aesthetic use of land, buildings, landscaping and amenities; and the improvements to be made in land use, building construction and appearance, traffic safety and control, landscaping and drainage.
      4.   Area, width, frontage, yard coverage and height regulations in a C1 district are to be determined by conditional use permit or planned development approval.
   B.   Manufacturing Distribution District M1: To provide for areas in appropriate locations where heavy industrial processes necessary to the economy may be conducted. The regulations of this district are designed to protect environmental quality of the district and adjacent areas.
   C.   General Industrial District M2: To provide for areas in appropriate locations where heavy industrial processes necessary to the economy may be conducted. The regulations of this district are designed to protect environmental quality of the district and adjacent areas. (Ord. 2008-002, 2008)
