Zoning
I1
Light Industrial District
The purpose of the I-1 Light Industrial District is to provide for a wide variety of light manufacturing, fabricating, processing, research, wholesale distributing, and warehousing uses. Light industrial uses are enclosed low-intensity, non-nuisance light fabrication, and assembly-type manufacturing, as well as research facilities with little to no outside impacts. The industrial zoning districts are generally located away from residential development and near transportation facilities and municipalities. Dwellings are permitted above or behind ground-floor light industrial uses to allow for a mixed-use environment, typically for caretaker residences.
