745 Reservoir Rd, Gardners, PA 17324

Industrial District

Accommodate and permit the reasonable expansion and continued economic viability of the important industrial areas located in Peach Glen and Gardners Villages, thus creating industrial development patterns that are efficient in design and which will focus industrial transportation needs on major roadways instead of in residential neighborhoods.; Require new industrial development to be adequately buffered from nearby residential land uses to ensure the maximum compatibility between land uses.; Provide performance standards for industrial uses that ensure that the off-site impacts of industrial operations on surrounding non-industrial areas are minimized.; Require land coverage, building and facilities design, and buffering arrangements that are compatible with the rural characteristics of Tyrone Township, while, at the same time, allowing for an intensity of land use typical of industrial facilities.; Protect the health, safety, welfare, and property values of nearby residential areas from the incompatible effects sometimes associated with contemporary industrial, manufacturing, and processing operations by requiring the sensitive placement, careful design, and appropriate setback of these types of facilities within the rural environment.
