Restricted Or Light Industrial District

The purpose of the Restricted or Light Industrial District is to provide space for those industrial uses which operate in a clean and quiet manner and generate only light to moderate amounts of traffic. This district is not intended for the use of industries which deal with hazardous elements or emit noise, glare, dust, odor, smoke, or possess other offensive characteristics detrimental to surrounding land uses such as large traffic generation. The intent is to create and protect efficient light industrial areas by insuring careful design, placement, and grouping of industries which will promote the protection of any adjacent residential or business activities. Land to be placed in this district is intended to have level topography, public utilities, and major transportation facilities readily available. An Industrial District should contain at least fifty acres adjacent to a major transportation corridor, with zoning of smaller tracts strongly discouraged unless factual information is presented that the proposed industry is consistent with maintaining rural character of the Township. It is strongly recommended that such development be Planned Unit Development per Section 414.
