Research And Development District

The Research and Development Districts RD as herein established, are intended to provide for a community of research and related facilities while specifically excluding incongruous uses. The uses permitted within this district are distinct from other industrial districts since the uses are generally lower intensity with minimal impacts outside of the principal buildings. The RD Districts are also intended to permit uses which manufacture, process, package, assemble or treat finished or semifinished products from materials prepared outside RD Districts. Accessory uses which complement and support the principal uses and are intended for use by employees and visitors of the principal uses are allowed when meeting the standards of this district. The standards of this District, particularly setbacks and landscaping standards are designed to promote compatibility between the research operations and the character of surrounding uses. The intentional prohibition ofoutdoor storage and prohibition of raw materials processing for finished products or for shipment in bulk form to be used in an industrial operation at another location is intended to help meet this goal.
