The regulations set forth in this article shall apply in the Highway Commercial District. There is currently no C-H District established by this chapter. The C-H District is intended for commercial uses to serve the highway traveler. The bulk of highway frontage in the County is not appropriate for commercial uses. Therefore, highway commercial uses shall be located in existing communities or carefully selected points outside communities. For reasons of safety, congestion, traffic control, and minimizing other adverse impacts, the C-H District shall be established on parcels sufficiently large enough to provide safe highway access, maneuvering parking, and related activities.
