21-2-4.4: PUBLIC FACILITIES DESIGN GUIDELINES:
   A.   Landscaping And Walls: Landscaping and walls for all public facility uses shall conform to the residential and non- residential requirements provided in article IV of this chapter.
   B.   Off-Street Parking: Off-street parking for public facilities shall comply with the standards contained in article IV of this chapter.
   C.   Signs: Signage for public facilities shall comply with the standards contained in article IV of this chapter. (Ord. 18-880, 7-23-2018)
21-2-5: INDUSTRIAL DISTRICTS:
21-2-5.1: GENERAL PURPOSE:
The purpose of the Industrial Zoning Districts is to provide areas that promote employment opportunities for existing and future residents of the City and surrounding communities, while also separating these districts from future and/or established residential and commercial areas from their potential direct and indirect operational influences. (Ord. 18-880, 7-23-2018)
21-2-5.2: INDUSTRIAL DISTRICTS ENUMERATED:
   A.   Business Park (BP): The purpose of this Industrial District is to provide sites for a range of research, technology and business park uses, including office and administrative uses, designed to be conducted such that these and storage operations are contained entirely within enclosed buildings. Light manufacturing uses that complement the business park or research park use that do not exhibit nuisances may be permitted if pertinent to the primary use. This district encourages the development of attractive buildings in a campus type setting on well-landscaped sites which may be adjacent to residential areas.
   B.   Light Industrial (I-1): The purpose of this Industrial Zoning District is to provide for a mix of assembly and non-intensive manufacturing and office park uses. Such uses are located in an attractive, planned development setting with proper screening and landscaping; all compatible with adjacent uses. It is intended that this district allow for employment growth through the establishment of high quality, planned industrial centers for corporate offices and indoor manufacturing and well screened storage uses.
   C.   General Industrial (I-2): The purpose of this Industrial Zoning District is to provide areas where heavy and concentrated fabrication, manufacturing, and processing uses are appropriately screened and landscaped. It is intended that this district provide adequate space for industrial operations and related activities so that the economic base of the City may be strengthened and employment opportunities expanded while protecting residential and commercial land uses from objectionable encroachments. (Ord. 18-880, 7-23-2018)
21-2-5.3: INDUSTRIAL USE STANDARDS:
Table 2.5-1, "Table Of Allowed Uses For Business, Industrial And Public Facility Districts", of this section, lists land uses and indicates whether they are permitted by right or with approval of a conditional use permit (CUP), or prohibited within each zoning district. The use table also includes references to additional use-specific standards that may be applicable to that use. The organization headings and individual abbreviations utilized in the table are identified as follows:
   A.   Use Category: The "use category" is intended to provide a quick reference to organize the specific uses. Such category is not regulatory.
   B.   Specific Use Type: The "specific use type" is regulatory and functions as the basis for listing the existing and future land uses that are considered in each zoning district. Rather than list every possible individual land use type, this list classifies individual land uses and activities into specific use types based on common functional, product or physical characteristics; such as the type and amount of activity, the type of customers or residents, and how goods or services are sold or delivered and site conditions. The definition of each specific use type is located in section 21-9-1, "Definitions", of this chapter.
   C.   Permitted Uses (P): A "P" in a cell indicates that the use is allowed by right in that zoning district.
   D.   Conditional Uses (C): A "C" in a cell indicates that the use is allowed with a conditional use permit in the respective zoning district. Conditional use permits must be reviewed and approved in accordance with the procedures of section 21-6-7 of this chapter.
   E.   Not Permitted (NP): An "NP" in a cell indicates that the use is prohibited in that zoning district.
   F.   Use-Specific Standards: Section numbers listed in the "Supplemental Use Regulations" column denote the location of additional regulations that are applicable to the specific use type; however, provisions in other sections of this chapter may also apply.
   G.   Non-Specified Uses: When a use cannot be reasonably classified into a specific use type, or appears to fit into multiple specific use types, the Zoning Administrator is authorized to determine the most similar and thus most appropriate specific use type based on the actual or projected characteristics of the individual use or activity (including but not limited to size, scale, operating characteristics and external impacts) in relationship to the specific use type definitions provided in section 21-9-1 of this chapter. Appeal of the Zoning Administrator's decision may be filed with the Community Development Department and heard by the Board of Adjustment in conformance with the procedures of section 21-6-2.11 of this chapter.
