The purpose of the general commercial and shopping center (C-2) district is to provide for a wide range of facilities for the sale of goods and provision of personal services. When applied to shopping centers, the uses are generally conducted within a building but may include outdoor sales related to the principal use. The centers may have a supermarket as a principal tenant and may also include a department or variety store as a principal tenant, designed to function as a commercial shopping center. When applied to other commercial areas and strip commercial along thoroughfares, it will permit a variety of commercial uses including outdoor sales, fast food and take-out food service, restaurants, personal care services, repair of automobiles excluding heavy trucks, rental services, motels, auto sales and service, offices and similar uses. This district is consistent with the general commercial/shopping center and the commercial/light industrial general plan land use designations.
