Freeway service areas shall be limited in number to encourage clustering <br /> of uses at selected interchanges: <br /> • There are five,C-FS zones spread out along Interstate 5 within the <br /> County's jurisdiction. The farthest distance between two adjacent <br /> C-FS zones is 17 miles. There are two areas that are eight miles <br /> apart and one that is 7.75 miles apart. This project is located <br /> between the two C-.FS zones that are located the closest together. <br /> The-proposed project would-be located at the west terminus of <br /> Roth Road.
