Most uses in the C/I-Light District are established as conditional uses due to physical conditions unique to the area which limit development capacity, including poor soil conditions, high water table, lack of municipal water supply, lack of municipal sanitary sewer, and lack of municipal storm sewer. In establishing new uses, the Planning Commission and City Council may consider the following factors to address environmental concerns, including: (i) non-contamination of the groundwater system through utilization of containment systems for off-site waste disposal and on-site sewage disposal systems; (ii) installation of wells for on-site water supply; and, (iii) installation of local or regional stormwater management facilities, including stormwater ponding and infiltration, to mitigate and manage the impact of construction of impervious surfaces within the district. In addition, the City Council may adopt other reasonable conditions intended to protect the public health, safety and welfare, and to ensure the compatibility of land uses within the C/I-Light District and adjacent to the C/I-Light District.
