§ 1280.01 PURPOSES.
   Office-Laboratory Districts and Light Industrial Districts and their respective regulations are established herein in order to achieve, among others, the following purposes:
   (A)   To provide convenient and sufficient districts for industrially oriented office and research activities and for the production and distribution of goods in order to serve and promote economic development of the community;
   (B)   To provide Office-Laboratory Districts in close proximity to the major traffic arteries so as to be accessible to widely dispersed administrative and technical personnel in the region;
   (C)   To provide Light Industrial Districts near the major traffic arteries for uses which generate relatively large volumes of traffic, so as to be accessible to a large labor force and consumers throughout the region;
   (D)   To protect and stabilize developments from traffic congestion by regulating the intensity of use, by requiring off-street parking, loading and on-site circulation facilities and by regulating the access to streets;
   (E)   To protect nearby residential zoning by restricting the types of nearby uses, particularly at their common boundaries, which would otherwise create objectionable influences; and
   (F)   To promote the most desirable and beneficial industrial use of the land.
