These properties are therefore in a state of transition. The intent of the H-1 Highway 10 Business District is to allow for uses that minimize traffic, vehicular access, and facilitate orderly transition of the corridor while allowing the property owners the ability to utilize their property for economic benefit until such time as the U.S. Highway 10 transportation system improvements are initiated.
