The city council has determined that certain non-industrial uses may be permitted in industrial zones in order to achieve land use compatibility objectives. Those uses include adult uses and churches and religious facilities. Consistent with the guidance provided in section 16-163, industrial land use matrix, the following provisions and restrictions apply.
(A) Adult uses. Adult uses are further governed by Article V, Division 1 of this code.

To ensure the integrity and economic viability of the industrial zoning districts and promote compatibility with assembly type uses such as churches, mosques, synagogues, and other religious facilities, the following additional restrictions apply to industrial zoned properties.
(1) All religious facilities in industrial zones are subject to a special use permit to permit the evaluation of land use compatibility and potential negative impacts on nearby industrial uses and hazard exposure to facility users.
(2) Religious facilities may be permitted in multi-tenant buildings in the C-M, BRP, and ML zones, subject to a special use permit.
