Vineland City Zoning Code

§ 425-295

B-3 Business Zone standards.

[Amended 5-25-1999 by Ord. No. 98-69; 4-10-2007 by Ord. No. 2007-26; 6-24-2008 by Ord. No. 2008-39; 3-26-2019 by Ord. No. 2019-20; 12-14-2021 by Ord. No. 2021-73; 4-15-2025 by Ord. No. 2025-28]
A. 
Purpose. It is the purpose of these zones to recognize and preserve the character of highway business areas within the City. As there is acreage suitable for development available within these zones, it is further the purpose of this chapter to create business areas allowing more uses than the B-1 and B-2 Zones, so as to provide varied business opportunities within the City. It is important that zone requirements and design standards not be sacrificed to allow overdevelopment of properties, as this would negatively impact upon the character of these business areas and upon the quality of life of adjoining residential areas. Strict adherence to design standards is deemed important, particularly those standards which govern safe ingress/egress, as the function of the highway system must be preserved.
