The CN designation is intended to provide for a limited range of retail and service uses
developed in one or more distinct centers oriented to sere the needs of and maintain
compatibility with residential uses in the immediate area. An eating and drinking
establishment with alcohol sales and accessory outdoor dining is a consistent use within

similar locations and are complimentary to the surrounding commercial and residential
uses.

surrounding neighborhood.

shopping center has operated as an eating and drinking establishment in the past and
demonstrated the location's capability of operating as a compatible use with other land
uses in the vicinity.
