136 Setzer Rd, Dallas, NC 28034

General Industrial

The I-2 district is established to provide for areas of heavier manufacturing and industrial uses that are properly sited, based on such factors as: adjacent land uses, access to the transportation network, and the availability of public services and facilities. It is the intent of this district to provide an environment for industries that is unencumbered by nearby residential or commercial development. I-2 zoned districts shall be located in areas where conflicts with other uses can be minimized to promote orderly transitions and buffers between uses. The I-2 district is established in order to provide sites for activities that involve major transportation terminals, and manufacturing facilities that have a greater impact on the surrounding area than industries found in the I-1 district. I-2 districts shall generally not be located adjacent to any property that is zoned for residential use, except when mitigating factors (i.e., terrain, buffering, and transportation access) are in place to substantively mitigate any potential negative impacts upon such residential areas caused by uses in the I-2 district. Any areas that are rezoned to an I-2 district subsequent to the adoption of this ordinance shall be located so as to have direct access to or lie in close proximity of a principal or minor arterial.
