<br /> ..,. <br /> Franklin: It is the zoned district that is the old <br /> downtown area. It provides a wide <br /> variety of retail, service and office <br /> uses. It is different than the <br /> Commercial Business District. <br /> Carnival: Your memorandum refers to the 1989 Comp <br /> Plan Update and that is where this area <br /> is zoned commercial/ residential.
