Urban Commercial (UC) District. The Urban Commercial District is designed in recognition of the fact that historically commerce and business tended to concentrate in a central area and that over the years the area has expanded outward from its traditional center along the major roadways. The area also features residential parcels that are transitioning to feature more density or to other uses, such as professional offices or personal services. The intent of this district is to permit expansion of existing uses or the redevelopment of parcels to new or different uses. The district will also provide opportunities, incentives and requirements to acknowledge and respect the Winnipesaukee River in the downtown area between Lake Opechee and Lake Winnisquam. The river is a focal point in the City's history and heritage and should be a critical factor in any redevelopment within the district. The district is defined as outlined on the official Zoning Map.
