Buildings and land shall be used and buildings shall be designed, erected, altered, moved or maintained in industrial districts only for the uses set forth for each district, respectively, in the schedules and regulations of this Planning and Zoning Code.
(a) The main buildings and uses set forth in the schedule in Section 1138.03
shall be permitted by right as the principal building or use of a zoning lot.
(b) Conditional uses are certain types of main or accessory uses, so classified because of their uncommon characteristics, infrequency of occurrence, large land area requirement or other features, and shall not be permitted in certain locations by right. Such uses require consideration and approval by the Planning Commission and Council, approval in the form of a conditional use permit being granted only if:
(1) The proposed use shall be located no closer than necessary to schools, churches and other places of assembly;
(2) The location, extent and intensity of the proposed use shall be such that its operation is not objectionable to nearby dwellings by reason of noise, smoke, dust, odors, fumes, vibrations or glare greater than is permitted by the performance standards of the district; and
(3) The proposed use shall form a harmonious part of the Industrial Park District, taking into account, among other considerations, traffic and relationship of one use to another.
(c) The accessory buildings and uses set forth in the schedule in Section 1138.03
, shall be permitted as a subordinate building or use if they are planned and developed integrally therewith, clearly incident thereto and located on the same zoning lot as the main building or use.
(d) A building designed and constructed as a residence cannot be occupied in whole or in part, by an industrial park use unless the entire building is redesigned and reconstructed to express and serve the proposed use in regard to the exterior design, the building plan and the site plan and must be made to conform to all requirements of the Building Code pertaining to structures permitted in Industrial Park Districts.
(e) Existing residences, not permitted as of right within an Industrial Park District under this chapter shall be construed as nonconforming uses, but may be continued, extended, altered, enlarged and maintained as a residence subject to all lot area, building area, lot coverage and yard regulations of the U1 Single Family District.
(f) Mixed uses, which shall include, but not be limited to office, professional, medical office, hotel, restaurant and retail shall be permitted if they are to be built upon any reclaimed brownfield or landfill property and the size of the lot exceeds forty acres.
