delete uses from the current C-2 zoning. The Planning Connd.ssion,
at their rreeting of April 7, 1982, did not wish an overlay zone.
She stated that several uses in the C-2 zone would be applicable to
a COIIlffircial recreation district. She added that rootels and
visitor serving retail might be added to those uses, and nechanical
car washes and warehouse_ storage might be deleted.
Corrm. Peirce asked for the difference between a hotel and rrotel,
if they are defined in the Code.
Ms. Sapetto replied that the only difference is the configuration of
the structure; that is , a rootel has parking by the room, and a hotel
has parking a!ilay from ~e rooms. Also, nntels are in the C-3 zone,
while hotels are in the C-2 zone. Parking requiren:ents for hotels
and rrotels are exactly the sam:, two spaces for the managers and one
space for each lil1i t.
Corrm. Loosli asked if there were a definition of visitor serving
retail in the C.Ode.
Ms . Brayton replied in the negative. She added that many uses in
the C-2 zone would qualify as visitor serving retail, such as stores
geared nore towards tourists than the residents.

Motion by Cornn. Peirce, seconded by Conm. Cunmings , to make a
Resolution that, having looked at 'What is presently in the C-2
zone, the Conrnission feels that it generally covers anything that
would be in cormercial recreation which would satisfy the intent
of Item J of the LCP Phase 3 work program.
Conrn. Smith asked for the purpose, outside of IJErely corrplying with
the requiret1EI1ts of the Local Coastal Canmi.ssion, of examining the
C-2 zone for comrercial recreational uses.

determine if there are additional anendrrents that should be made to
encourage cormErcial recreational uses in the C-2 zone. She stated
that the Connrl.ssion nrust determine if it needed to be revised.
