Rename the Commercial District: Take Two
The Planning Commission worked on the process to change the name of the Commercial District. One of the recommendations of the 2019 Commercial District Master Plan is to come up with a new name.
Why?
Because it's not just commercial properties that are located this zone roughly between Clark's Trucking and the Western entrance to Raceway Road on Route 15. The Commercial is the pink area on the zoning map below.

It's a mix of residential, commercial, and even some farm land. And it's going to evolve into more in the future: a mixed use, multi-purpose crossroads linking our three Village Centers (Riverside, Jericho Corners, and Jericho Center). Note that the Jericho Market is located in the Riverside Village Center District (red on the map), not the Commercial district (pink on the map).
