How this ordinance defines it

The operative definition is the local one. Codes routinely subdivide a category into tiers — “day care 2, family”, “group home 2” — and attach different permissions to each, so only South Boston’s own text settles what this covers.

f. Commercial use types. 1. Restaurant. 2. Restaurant, fast food. 3. Bakery. 4. Retail shop less than 1,500 square feet in size. 5. Convenience store with no gas pumps. 6. Service and personal service businesses with no outdoor storage of merchandise.
