Uses shall be restricted to those indicated for the CC -3 District in Section 5.2, unless a Conditional Use (CU) or MPD -CZ District is approved (see Section 3.8). Additionally, non - residential uses are restricted based on the Watershed Protection Overlay District in which the property is located. Refer to Section 4.2.3 for land 2. use restrictions. Development within the zoning district shall be subject to all applicable use standards detailed in Article 5 and all applicable development standards detailed in Article 6 of this Ordinance. See Sections 6.2.5 and 6.2.6 if more than one principal use or principal structure is proposed on a non - residential zoning lot. 3. The residential density permitted on a given parcel is based on the Watershed Protection Overlay District in which the property is located. Refer to Section 4.2.4 for a breakdown of the allowable density (i.e., the number of individual dwellings that can be developed on a parcel of property). 4. Allowable impervious surface area is based on the Watershed Protection Overlay District in which the property is located. Refer to Sections 4.2.5 and 4.2.6 for a breakdown of the allowable impervious surface area. Additionally, Section 4.2.6 may require a larger lot size for non - residential uses than is contained in 5. the Dimensional and Ratio Standards Table. For lots outside of a Watershed Protection Overlay District (see Section 4.2), the minimum usable lot area for lots that utilize ground absorption wastewater systems shall be 30,000 square feet for parcels between 40,000 square feet and 1.99 acres in size; zoning lots two acres and greater in size shall have a minimum 6. usable lot area of at least 40,000 square feet. Proposed subdivisions are subject to all applicable subdivision standards detailed in Article 7. Note that Article 7 provides for different dimensional requirements than those shown in the Dimensional and Ratio Standards table depending upon the type of subdivision proposed and the percentage of open space 7. provided. Subdivisions proposing private roads are subject to larger setbacks and minimum lot sizes than those listed in the Dimensional and Ratio Standards. Refer to Section 7.8.4 for additional requirements. Refer to 8. Section 7.8.5 for private road standards. Subdivisions in the Economic Development, Commercial and /or Industrial Nodes are subject to the 9. procedure outlined in Section 2.16. Normally, the maximum amount of land zoned CC -3 at any node shall not exceed 29 acres, but 15 acres shall apply in rural areas where population density is lower and distributed more widely than in the Transition Areas. Acreage limitations shall not apply to property zoned Existing Commercial -5 (EC -5), Conditional Use 10. (CU), or MPD -CZ. All property to be designated for new development under this classification shall have direct access to major collector streets as designated by the adopted Comprehensive Plan. is iR GFdeF tG Garry Gut the pFiRG'pal us aGFes in size.

Since the proposed changes involve an additional exception, staff is suggesting that language be added to 92 to direct users to the appropriate Section of the UDO if the users, project involves more than one non - residential principal use or principal structure instead of having two separate Development Standards ( #11 and #12) in this chart.
