Property Description
B-2 uses permitted by right (R)
These are allowed without a “special/conditional use” vote (you still may have site plan / permitting, etc.):
1. Regional businesses (including, but not limited to):
• grocery stores
• convenience stores
• restaurants
• drug stores
• “sales and services” (broad category)
…except uses prohibited by other ordinances.
2. All “neighborhood business” uses allowed in B-1, including (not limited to):
• personal service establishments
• restaurants / bistros / cafes
• professional & business offices (example given: attorney, accountant)
• small scale strip malls
• studios
• banks and similar convenience goods
…and B-2 also gives examples like delicatessens, dry cleaning services, barber/beauty shops, shoe sales & repair, offices, banks, and similar convenience goods/sales/services.
3. Shopping centers and strip malls
4. Hotels, motels, and bed & breakfasts
5. Indoor theaters and other family entertainment facilities
B-2 uses requiring Planning Commission review (P)
These are “possible/allowed,” but only after Planning Commission review/approval:
• Schools and educational institutions
• Mixed-use buildings, if: commercial use is primary and limited to B-2 commercial uses; residential is secondary; and the project is compatible with surrounding area
• Public utility & service structures (water, sewer, fire, police, etc.)
• Healthcare facilities
• Public parks and recreational areas
• Government buildings used for public purposes
• Private clubs
• Healthcare clinics
• Parking lots
• Multi-family residential
• Veterinary clinic (with a limitation tied to animals permitted in Article 7)
• Gas stations, service stations, and auto repair shops (not body shops) — with detailed conditions (repairs indoors, minimum lot size/frontage, setbacks, limits on vehicle storage duration, etc.)
B-2 uses allowed only as Special Exceptions (S)
• Public or privately owned/operated amusement/recreational facilities
B-2 uses prohibited (X)
• Any use not specifically listed as (R), (P), or (S)
• Warehouses
• Mini-warehouses
The key rule that creates “possibly could be approved” uses
Even though the ordinance says unlisted uses are prohibited, it also says that when a requested use is not specifically referred to, the Planning Commission determines its status by the “most clearly analogous use.”
So, in practice, a new/modern use not named in 2016 can still be approved if the Commission classifies it as clearly analogous to a permitted B-2 category (like “restaurants,” “sales and services,” “personal service establishments,” “family entertainment,” etc.).
Examples of “likely analogous” uses in B-2 (depends on facts)
These aren't explicitly listed by name, but are often reasonably classed as B-2 “sales and services” / personal service / retail / entertainment, unless another ordinance blocks it:
• Fitness / gym / studio-type training (often fits “studios” or “family entertainment” style uses)
• Cell phone store, computer repair, small electronics sales/service (often “sales and services”)
• Coffee shop / dessert shop (often “restaurant / cafe”)
• Salon/spa/barber-related services (personal service)
• Party/event venue (might land under “family entertainment” or “private club,” depending on operations)
