Below Is The Official C-3 Zoning Code From Collier
County
Sec. 2.2.14. Commercial
intermediate district (C-3).
2.2.14.1. Purpose and intent. The
purpose and intent of the commercial intermediate
district (C-3) is to provide for a wider variety of
goods and services intended for areas expected to
receive a higher degree of automobile traffic. The
type and variety of goods and services are those
that provide an opportunity for comparison shopping
and have a trade area consisting of several
neighborhoods and are preferably located at the
intersection of two arterial level streets. Most
activity centers meet this standard. This district
is also intended to allow all of the uses permitted
in the C-1 and C-2
zoning districts typically aggregated in planned
shopping centers. This district is not intended to
permit wholesaling type of uses, or land uses that
have associated with them the need for outdoor
storage of equipment and merchandise. A mixed-use
project containing a residential component is
permitted in this district subject to the criteria
established herein. The C-3 district is permitted in
accordance with the locational criteria for
commercial and the goals, objectives and policies as
identified in the future land use element of the
Collier County growth management plan. The maximum
density permissible in the commercial intermediate
district and the urban mixed use land use
designation shall be guided, in part, by the density
rating system contained in the future land use
element of the Collier County growth management
plan. The maximum density permissible or permitted
in a district shall not exceed the density
permissible under the density rating system.
