The district may adjoin <br />residential districts or other business districts which are subject to more restrictive controls. The <br />district shall have immediate access to adequate highways and public sanitary sewer. Because of <br />the location of the B-5 District as contemplated in the area known as Navarre in the City, the uses <br />are limited in order to limit the hardcover in that area and to limit the future generation of traffic for <br />that property in that use district since there is already a traffic problem in Navarre".
