The purpose of the Transition Commercial (TC) District is to provide areas for more intensive commercial uses which are not appropriate for, or which require larger lots than is typical for, the Borough's downtown commercial and mixed use districts. The Borough encourages lot consolidation in order to better host the more intense uses permitted in the District. Retail sales and service uses are desirable on larger tracts of land that offer different opportunities and character than that of the downtown, as well as to further incentivize lot consolidation.
