Seems like another misapplication of the zoning code. Housing standards in terms of building quality should be regulated through a building code, not a zoning code.

Same thing with the corner store stuff. Why are hours of operation relevant to zoning? I can't answer this right now, but I wonder how many other zones have hours of operation specified in the code? Why aren't those issues regulated - if they need regulation at all - through business licensing or something along those lines? Liquor licenses regulate the hours of bars, for example - not the zoning code.
