Chapter 30.25 - PROFESSIONAL COMMERCIAL ZONE (PC)

The PC Zone is designed to allow office and residential use within the village center in a manner that will not detract from the area's predominantly retail character. Office and professional uses should be geographically concentrated so as to minimize retail parking problems, disruption of pedestrian-oriented shops, and to soften the transition from retail to medium and low density residential at the south end of the village center.

(Ord. No. 971, § 1, 9-21-2020)

Property within the PC Zone shall be designated by ordinance to be depicted upon the City zone map.
