§ O. B-2 highway business district.

(1)

Purpose and intent. The B-2 district is composed of certain lands and structures located along state and federal roads which require high visibility, locations accessible to major highways and arterials, and serve significant portions of the community. It is also the intent of this district to provide areas for business to occur which, because of their intensity, some outside storage area or hours of operation may have a significant impact on adjoining properties. Because of the nature of the businesses permitted in the B-2 district, the zoning district should be limited to property fronting on major thoroughfares and/or in large commercial nodes.

(2)
