The C2 zoning district allows for <br />commercial uses such as restaurants and hotels. The proposed project is consistent with the <br />zoning for the site. Surrounding land uses include a mixture of commercial and residential to the <br />north of First Street, office uses to the east and west, and a school use to the south (Exhibits 1, 2, <br />and 3). <br />EXHIBIT A <br />31A-3 <br />
