Vice-Mayor Howell stated the purpose of the meeting was to review the C-2 General Commercial Zoning District of the Village as defined and regulated by the Village Zoning Ordinance. Village Attorney Randolph suggested that the purpose of the meeting should be to define the types of businesses the Village is attempting to prohibit from the various areas contained in the present C-2 Zoning District. Matters relating to Code Enforcement are administrative matters that can be handled by the Village Manager in conjunction with the Village Building Official and are not items to be dis- cussed at tonight's meeting. Mr. Randolph also suggested that Council should attempt to indicate a specific direction denoting the permitted uses of the various areas designated within the current C-2 Zoning Dis- trict. This will enable the administration to formulate the proposals necessary to amend the C-2 Zoning District, in accord- ance with the desires of Council. Mr. Bradford reviewed a proposal providing for the re- classification of a portion of the current C-2 Zoning District into a C-3 Zoning District for High Intensity Type Businesses and restricting the current C-2 General Commercial District to nine (9) types of business uses compared to the current authorization of seventeen (17) permitted uses. The Village Manager also noted the necessity of further defining the term office space which would rec{uire two thirds (2/3) of a building to be used for office purposes and not more than one third (1/3) of a building to be used for storage purposes. ,, Village tivorks:lroia Meeting • August 21, 1986 Page 2 - Permits applied for in contravention of the two thirds (2/3) Office Space - one third (1/3) Storage Space Criteria would not be issued by the Building Official during such time as Zoning in progress has been declared. Council concurred with the general direction of the recommendations presented and thanked Dlr. Bradford and the other staff members for their contributions to the proposals.
