Light Industrial District

The light industrial L-I district is intended to provide areas where light manufacturing uses that primarily involve finishing, fabrication or assembly of previously manufactured parts may be located. The district's proximity to residential and other districts makes it desirable to limit industrial operations to those that are not objectionable due to generation of noise, vibration, smoke, dust, gas, fumes, odors or radiation and that do not create fire or explosion hazards or other objectionable conditions. The district is intended to exclude manufacturing or industrial uses that emit noxious odors, dust, fumes, gas, noise or vibration outside of any building on the premises. The industries locating in this district are characterized as lower in intensity, cleaner, and generally more compatible when located adjacent to commercial areas than are heavy industrial uses. Such industries are capable of operation in a manner so as to control the external effects of the manufacturing process through prevention or mitigation devices and conduct of operations within the confines of buildings.
