Logistics Park District

The purpose of the Logistics Park, L-P District is to create a limited multimodal industrial zone that provides for a modern type of industrial uses or industrial park created to support activities related to trade and rail and other transport service. Limitations are placed on the uses in this district to significantly restrict the outside activities and outside storage of materials, noise, vibration, smoke, pollution, fire and explosive hazard, glare and other potentially adverse influences. This zone is intended for industrial parks and larger, cleaner types of industries. The manufacturing uses should be conducted within a totally enclosed building. Any activities conducted outside should be screened and buffered, and external effects such as excessive noise or odor should not extend beyond the property lines. Residential uses should be discouraged from locating near the L-P District to protect the industries from residential complaints. Areas should not be zoned to the L-P District unless they are located adjacent or near to arterial thoroughfares capable of carrying commercial and truck traffic, as well as being located close to major truck routes. It is the general intent of this District to provide for a mutually beneficial, economically viable, well-planned development poised for long-term success including: To provide for the distribution of and appropriate relationships between various land uses and to minimize conflict between land uses; To describe desired future physical conditions within the L-P District; To manage growth in an orderly manner; and To serve as a basis for future development recommendations within the L-P District and set the precedent for sound planning and sustainable development practices throughout the L-P District area of influence.
