The Mixed Use District is established as a district in which the principal use of the land is for compact, mixed-use development where residential and small, low-density retail and professional offices are located together. This District will be initially located adjacent to the current Hawkinsville City Limits where a mix of residential and commercial is currently located and where public water is available. The intent of this category is to deter sprawl and concentrate more intensive development in areas where annexation is likely to occur in the future.
