The City of Boca Raton's CG (Commercial General) district permits a broad range of retail, office, personal service, food/beverage, entertainment, medical, and light commercial uses by right, with more intensive or impact-sensitive uses (auto service stations, outdoor entertainment, drive-through restaurants, pet daycare, and certain bars/restaurants near residential property) requiring conditional use approval.
The businesses the CG—GENERAL COMMERCIAL district in Boca Raton allows. The ones on the left are permitted by right; the ones on the right need a special approval first. (Zoning codes are set by each municipality, so CG—GENERAL COMMERCIAL here means specifically Boca Raton's CG—GENERAL COMMERCIAL district.)
