The following uses are allowed in this zone: See Schedule H.

Parking.

No merchandise, products, equipment, advertising or similar material or other objects, except for signs and approved display areas, are to be placed in front of the front line of the structure. All storage areas shall be to the rear of the building and properly screened. The Planning Board may allow side yard storage areas at their discretion, if they determine that rear storage would not be feasible.

Loading is preferred to the rear of the building. No on-street loading shall be permitted. Loading and docking areas shall be screened. The Planning Board may allow side- and front-yard loading at their discretion, if they determine that rear loading would not be feasible based upon the following considerations:

When uses in the C-1 Commercial District abut any residential district, the side setback shall be a minimum of 100 feet and the rear setback shall be a minimum of 150 feet. Adequate screening, as determined by the Planning Board, shall be provided. In addition, a buffer area of at least 50 feet shall be provided along the boundary line of the residential district. Such buffer area shall contain screen plantings of trees, hedges, shrubs, etc., to provide a visual and sound buffer between the districts.

No uses shall be permitted or conducted in any manner which would render it noxious or offensive by reason of dust, odor, refuse, smoke, fumes, noise, vibration or glare.

A minimum of 25% green space shall be incorporated into development plans.

Paved area side and rear yard setback shall be a minimum of 15 feet and front setback shall be a minimum of 30 feet except when uses in the C-1 Commercial District abut any residential district; then paved area side and rear yard setback shall be a minimum of 50 feet.

For all permitted uses and special permitted uses, § 129-176 shall be reviewed for additional requirements.
