areas provided that certain conditions are met; allows tattoo establishments in the mixed
use — community and mixed use— regional districts; removes density prescriptions from
the multi-family residential districts, as this is prescribed by the Comprehensive Plan;
reduces commercial building setbacks adjacent to single- and two-family dwellings to
equal that of the commercial parking lot setback of 15 feet; allows for reduced front
setbacks for commercial buildings along arterial roads so long as a public entrance is
provided; and establishes a maximum front setback of 60 feet for commercial buildings
along arterial roads.
