DUBUQUE CODE § 4-114
Section 4-114 C-3 Arterial business commercial district
4-114.1 General Statement of Intent
The C-3 Commercial District is intended to accommo-
date two basic types of commercial use :
1) uses which are primarily designed to serve the
needs or convenience of the motoring public, and
2) miscellaneous uses which may require highway or
arterial locations for their most beneficial opera-
tion and which cannot be more appropriately lo-
cated in other commercial -districts.
The uses permitted in this district often present special
problems which are different in kind and degree from
other commercial uses. In particular, unregulated
"strip" commercial development may result in serious
traffic and pedestrian circulation problems, adverse im-
pacts on surrounding residential or other uses, visual
clutter and blight, and lighting and sign problems. For
these reasons, the regulations of the C-3 -Commercial
District may impose special standards of construction,
screening, functional design, and performance upon
the creation of new highway commercial facilities or
the - expansion of existing highway businesses. In addi-
tion, special emphasis will be placed on traffic consid-
erations and relevant planning studies in decisions eon-
cerning requests for the creation of new C-3 Commer-
cial Districts.
4-114.2 Principal Permitted Uses
1) Professional' office uses.
2) Any Principal Permitted Uses of the C-1 Com-

those that may hereafter be, listed in this section.

Section 4-118 ID Institutional District
4-118.1 General Statement of Intent
The ID Institutional District is a special purpose Dis-
trict designed to address the particular problems and
characteristics of Dubuque's many institutional facili-
ties. It is the intent of this ordinance that this district
2565
§ 4-118
DUBUQUE CODE § 4-118
shall only be applied to facilities possessing the charac-
teristics of institutional use set forth in this Section.
The Council finds that several factors distinguish in-
stitutions from other land use activities. The most
salient feature of institutions is their tendency to func-
tion as substantially separate communities within the
City. They maintain a large and definable resident pop-
ulation within a more or less discrete geographical
area. Typically, a broad range of essential living serv-
ices and facilities are provided by the institutions in-
ternally for both its resident and transitory popula-
tions. A second common feature of institutions is a
primary educational, medical, religious, or charitable
purpose. This distinguishes them from commercial
nursing homes, hotels, boarding houses, and similar
uses.
Because of these purposes, and the fact that institu-
tions often provide services useful or beneficial to the
public welfare, the use regulations for this district are
broadly worded to permit a reasonable latitude for in-
stitutional self-determination. The Council recognizes,
however, that the maintenance or creation of certain
uses desirable to the institutional community may be
unbeneficial or even inimical to the public welfare. This
is a particularly true in locations where the institution
abuts the broader community or where the use is of a
size or intensity that is likely to affect a public interest
or attract substantial public involvement in its opera-
tion, such as commercial uses. For this reason, indi-
