In addition, there could be a requirement that a certain percentage of the � stips be �designated for use 'by the property owners in the . � area . This could conceivably reduce the scope of the • current proposal to one-third or one-fourth of its present proposed size. In addition, strict standards could be incorporated in relation to signing, hours of operation, - maintenance of the area, etc. � Regardless of the disposition of the current proposal, this consultant would recommend that the present B-2 Lakeshore � , Business District be amended to regulate the number of slips � -� in a marina and that a new Neighborhood Lakeshore Business • District be created to deal with similar problems elsewhere . � in the City.
