The "C-B" Central Business District is intended for the purpose of grouping retail merchandising activities into a concentrated area serving the general shopping needs of the trade area. It is also important to keep people living and visiting this district. Though residential users are permitted to cohabitate in the central business district, dwelling units must be constructed/separate from commercial uses. The principal permitted uses include department stores, apparel stores, general retail sales and services, and similar uses appropriate for comparison shopping. The grouping is intended to strengthen the business level of the central business activity.
