SECTION 17 PRO: PROFESSIONAL OFFICE DISTRICT
A. Purpose and Intent
The PRO, Professional Office District, is designed to
encourage the development of vacant land and the
redevelopment of blighted residential areas along major
thoroughfares in selected areas of the County. The selected
areas will be deemed as no longer appropriate for strictly
single-family use but which are not considered appropriate
for a broad range of commercial uses, as permitted in a
commercial zoning district. The PRO district may serve as a
buffer between commercial and residential uses or be estab-
lished in areas in transition from single-family to more
intensive land uses. The PRO district shall be limited in
size so as not to create or significantly extend strip
commercial development. The PRO district may be considered
consistent with the LD -2, MD-11 MD -2, MXD, and commercial
land use designations of the County's Comprehensive Plan when
established based on the criteria in this ordinance.

be subject to the following standards:

Comprehensive Plan the Professional Office District
shall only be established for properties with
frontage on an arterial street (as identified on the
Thoroughfare Plan in the Traffic Circulation Element
of the Comprehensive Plan).
