(a) A building or premises may be used only for the retail sale of merchandise; services, general and professional offices; recreational except outdoor theaters; parking areas and other facilities ordinarily accepted as shopping center uses.
(b) Before land is used or a building erected or used for any of the above purposes, a preliminary plan and a final plan shall be approved by the Board of Zoning Appeals for all contiguous property within this district in any one location. The Board shall have thirty days to consider and approve or reject a preliminary plan, with or without modifications, although this period may be extended by agreement of the parties concerned. Rejection of a preliminary or final plan by the Board may be appealed to Council. Final plans will be approved when in accordance with approved preliminary plans. From time to time the proponents may make minor changes in the approved final plan so long as such changes have been approved by the Zoning Officer or upon denial of approval by the Zoning Officer, with the approval of the Board. What constitutes a "minor" change will be determined at the sole discretion of the Zoning Officer. No zoning or occupancy permits shall be issued for any building or use that is not in accordance with an approved final plan.
