(1) Purpose: to encourage the redevelopment of Port Jervis waterfront as a mixture of uses that will contribute to the City's tax base, create jobs and integrate with the natural environment of the Delaware River, the downtown, the adjacent residential neighborhood and City bicycle/pedestrian trail systems. This shall be accomplished by providing zoning classification suitable for application to that portion of the waterfront where mixed uses, including recreation, public green space, entertainment, single-family, multifamily residential, trade shops and retail and service-related commercial activity will be permitted. Permitted commercial uses will be limited to those uses that will not compete with downtown retail activity and will provide goods and services needed by the adjacent residential neighborhood and the employees and customers of businesses located on the waterfront.
