TABLE 5-D: MIXED-USE ZONE PURPOSE STATEMENTS
B-1 To provide limited areas that support a small scale, pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use environment, allowing
residents access to daily shopping and service needs within walking distance of nearby established residential
neighborhoods. The B-1 zone provides for a mixture of commercial and service uses, closely integrated with –
and complimentary to – the surrounding residential neighborhood fabric to support the concept of a
complete neighborhood. The zone encourages both vertical and horizontal mixed-use, such as a commercial
first floor with residential uses above, combined retail/office uses in a multi-story structure (vertical), or
commercial uses mixed with three-family, four-family, townhouse, and multi-family structures across the face
of a block (horizontal). Suitable locations for this zone may include street intersections and arterial streets
with existing or proposed traditional neighborhood retail and service uses.
