The GI District is established to provide for the continuance of existing industrial activity and to encourage private reinvestment and revitalization of industrial sites within the older portions of the City of Galion, while maintaining adequate development standards.
It is recognized that property within the GI District is likely to be located in older areas of the City that are characterized by mixed land use and higher densities. It is the intent of this Ordinance, and this District in particular, to protect and preserve the basic property rights of such existing industrial uses, while promoting the compatibility of such uses with adjacent neighborhoods.
