4.9.6 C-1 - Neighborhood Business District
1. Description of District
The Neighborhood Business District established in this article is 
intended to be one which permits the placement of a limited number 
of retail businesses and service activities in close proximity of 
residential neighborhoods. It is intended that relatively small and well 
defined shopping districts will be provided which are within walking 
distance or within a short automobile ride to the people they serve. 
In order to insure that such business development does not exert an 
injurious effect upon the character of surrounding residential areas, 
uses are prohibited which would create offensive and loud noises,

Neighborhood Business District is especially for those products and
