A. PURPOSE AND INTENT
This zone is primarily in-
tended to provide areas where
t'establishments catering to the
dining, lodging and recreational
needs of the community and
tourists may be located. Said
zoning should, therefore, be
placed adjacent to main tourist
routes, interstate highways and
major tourist attractions. This
zone seeks to encourage de-
velopment characterized by
open space, attractive land-
scaping and ample off-street
parking. To successfully reach
the highest and best use of the
land this zone is placed under
a Planned Development Zone to
permit the property owners and/
or developers to work with the
Planning Commission for the
most aesthetic end results.
The Planning Commission
may grant a Tourist, Commer-
cial, Recreation Planned De-
velopment Permit by resolution
for each parcel of land p]aeed
in a Tourist, Commercial, Rec-
reation Planned Development
Zone which it finds meets the
requirements of this ordinance.
The Planning Commission may
impose additional concitinr.s
and requirements upon a 'l our-
ist, Commercial, Recreation
Planned Development project as
it finds are reasonable and nec-
essary to carry out the purpose
and requirements of this zone.

provided further that any
illumination thereof shall not be

tioned as to blind or dazzle the
vision of the travelers on adja-
cent streets and highways.

erected, constructed and/or
maintained or established on
lots or premises within this
zone.

be located no closer than the
