Light Impact Industrial District
The purpose of the Light Impact Industrial District is to implement the Comprehensive Plan by providing for the planned development of large land areas, in appropriate locations within urban growth areas, primarily for industrial and subordinate uses which provide support services to the district. Light industrial uses are primarily related to services, and distribution, manufacture and assembly of finished products that have a relatively light impact on adjacent uses and districts. Furthermore, it is the purpose of this district to encourage the master planning of the entire industrial site in ensuring compatibility between industrial operations, as well as the existing and future character of adjacent areas. It is also a purpose of this district to accommodate limited commercial uses that are incompatible with other commercial uses.
