The District is divided into the Riverside Area as depicted in Figure 21 and all other areas. The purpose of this district is to allow small scale nonresidential uses to continue to exist or to expand while still protecting surrounding residential areas,provided that such areas have been designated under an adopted subarea plan as being appropriate for the C-L District."

According to the Plan: Py "One of the key ideas of the Plan is to preserve and contain small commercial land uses in discrete existing locations. Existing commercial and independent businesses will remain, but further proliferation of large commercial development will not occur.
