Such uses would fall into several general types: Intangibles - these establishments are devoted primarily to the purchase of items which represent other tangible but immovable objects of wealth. Such firms would include finance and insurance agencies, loan companies, banks, real estate offices, brokers and land title companies, and so forth. Many of these establishments have the appearance of offices but their major function is selling. Wholesaling without stock - typically, this group functions in effect to bypass merchant wholesalers. They include manufacturer's own out- lets or wholesale agents and brokers who act as middlemen. Such es- tablishments require only display and office space. They do not handle or acquire title to goods but only arrange sales between producers and retailers or wholesale merchants. Private services - these establishments are oriented to individuals and to specific firms and agencies. Among such services are those oriented to business firms (machines, blueprinting, advertising, etc.); repair of goods; personal and professional services; and commercial- recreational establishments. c. Public and Semipublic - This category is intended for Federal, State County and City office buildings and facilities, and semipublic facili- tit ies and utilities which are relatively open to the public although such uses may be either privately or publicly owned. These latter public uses can be termed public services and are primarily oriented to groups of people or to places where people assemble into groups. Among such services are: (1) education (public, private and commercial schools, libraries, art centers and museums), (2) health and welfare (medical and social clinics, hospitals), (3) passive recreational faci- lities (as opposed to active, individual participation) such as auditor- iums, theaters, exhibition halls, (4) religious and social (church, lodge halls, fraternal organization), and (5) protective (fire stations, police stations, courts and so forth). d. Service Commercial /Residential - "This category is identical to "Service Commercial" in C.2.b. above with the following two exceptions: 1. Not permitted are auto - oriented uses and activities; excepting that hotels, motor hotels or other transient housing facilities are permitted. 2. Residential use is permitted provided that the total number of dwelling units shall not exceed 350. e. Parking - This category includes parking space within buildings, under- neath buildings or areas on the surface of the ground other than a street or other public way, for the parking of automobiles and available to the public whether for a fee or as an accomodation for clients or customers. Surface parking areas, where provided, shall be suitably paved, drained and lighted, and shall be appropriately screened. 3. Additional Controls and Restrictions to be Imposed by the Plan on the Sale, Lease, or Retention of all Real Property Acquired: The Urban Renewal Plan has developed specific decisions for each major area within the Urban Renewal Area. These decisions include the basic objectives to be realized in each area as it relates to the Central Business District, the predominant or general use to be developed, the physical organization of the area, the location of parking to serve the area, pedestrian circulation and vehicular access and service. The areas are identified and shown on the Land Use Plan Map. -3- (as of 7- 15 -80)
