the C-X Zone unless otherwise provided in this chapter; provided, however, that any area classified as a C-X Zone
prior to May 11, 1967, shall remain so classified until an underlying zone shall have been applied to such previously
existing C-X Zone. (Ord. 3710, 1974; Ord. 2585, 1957.)
28.60.005 Legislative Intent.
It is the intent of this chapter to permit uses in the C-X Zone of the type described below at which the level and
intensity of activity is commensurate with that of the surrounding residential area and the basic zone in which the site
is located. The intensity of activity of a C-X facility may be considered to be directly related to the number of
persons and vehicles traveling to and from the site during a given period of time. The appropriate maximum level of
activity for a C-X site will vary considerably depending upon the location of the site, the basic zone category, access
to appropriate collector and arterial streets and other similar factors. It is intended that the Planning Commission
shall make the determination that the level of activity proposed for a C-X site is appropriate. (Ord. 3710, 1974; Ord.
2585, 1957.)
28.60.030 Uses Permitted.
1. Research and development establishments and related administrative operations; provided that no
manufacturing is permitted in a C-X Zone and further provided that such uses or operations are not hazardous,
offensive or obnoxious by reason of the emission of odor, dust, heat, glare, gas fumes, smoke, vibrations,
electromagnetic or other radiation resulting in radio or television interference, or by reason of the storage or disposal
of waste materials or other products of such operations.
