OS, office service district. The intent of the office service district is to provide locations for uses which primarily include office and technical uses, and business and personal services uses which are dependent on and supportive of an office environment.

A limited range of business and service uses are permitted for the benefit of office personnel, tenants and visitors, provided that offices and technical uses remain the predominant use within the district.
