The proposed Land Development Code Amendment to create Zoning District 11 establishes:
1. Focus on office and light industrial uses to continue the areas emphasis as an employment center.
2. Expanded allowance of some intended outlot retail, service, and restaurant uses in response to the lack of amenities available to the existing office and industrial parks in the area.
