This zoning district is generally comprised of areas of the
Borough where a wider range of automobile-oriented and automobile-dominated
commercial and light industrial activities and related uses are more
predominate than are permitted in the downtown (DT) area. These areas
augment the downtown (DT) by providing for more intense business establishments
generally requiring additional street frontage, larger building footprint,
increased impervious coverage, deeper setbacks, increased building
heights, larger amounts of off-street parking and loading, outdoor
storage, increased screening and buffering, etc. This zoning district
seeks to accommodate these uses by minimizing detrimental impacts
on surrounding, lower-density and/or -intensity uses and districts
via general and specific compatibility and performance standards.
See Table 3-4 in § 425-14 relating to use tables for uses permitted by right, conditional use and/or special exception in this commercial/industrial district.[1]
