In the Commercial Zone, the presence of automobile service stations is permitted due to their alignment with the goals of commercial development, which focuses on supporting businesses that provide goods and services to the community. Automobile service stations typically cater to the needs of the public by offering fuel and vehicle maintenance services, which are essential in a commercial area designed for such activities.

The other options, while important for community development, may not align as well with the primary purpose of a Commercial Zone. Multifamily dwellings are generally found in residential zones, as they focus on housing rather than commercial activities. Elementary schools, while significant for education, are usually located in designated educational or residential areas to accommodate school-related traffic and activities. Parks, which serve recreational purposes, are typically situated in residential or mixed-use areas to enhance community living, rather than in zones strictly designated for commercial enterprises. Therefore, the regulation allowing automobile service stations reflects the practical needs of a commercial environment.
