Planned Industrial Development District

It shall be the intent of this district to establish and protect sites for light industrial uses which are not significantly objectionable in terms of appearance, noise, odor, fumes, etc. to surrounding properties. The regulations which apply within this district are designed to encourage the formation and continuance of a compatible environment for uses of a light industrial nature, to protect and preserve undeveloped areas of the city which are suitable for such industries and to discourage encroachment by other uses which are capable of adversely affecting the limited industrial character of the district.; It is also the intent of this district to locate PIDs at or adjacent to existing industrial land. In all cases the establishment of a new PID or the expansion of an existing PID shall be as close as possible to existing industrial uses.; The PID district is also intended to encourage the best possible site plans and building arrangements under a plan of development rather than under lot-by-lot regulations. The developer benefits from better land utilization, economy in the provision of roads and utilities and flexibility in design. The City gains the advantage of variety in building types, compatibility of use and optimum community development. The planned industrial development is intended to encourage ingenuity and resourcefulness in land planning and to assure the provision of adequate facilities for the use of the occupants of the development. Review of the development plan by the City of Griffin Development Review Committee DRC is required to assure that the development is in compliance with all applicable codes, ordinances and design regulations.
