21A.34.150: IP INLAND PORT OVERLAY DISTRICT:
   A.   Purpose: The purpose of the IP Inland Port Overlay District is to allow for the development of an inland port as required in Utah Code chapter 11-58 Utah Inland Port Authority Act and its successor. The district is intended to take advantage of its location near an international airport, the interstate system, and rail infrastructure to allow for development that facilitates regional, national, and international trade. Land uses in the district are light industrial in nature, provide high quality jobs, and are an economic engine for the City and region. The district is well connected, linking people to jobs and other parts of the City and region, and linking businesses to goods and services by vehicle, rail, transit, air, bicycle, and foot. Above all, the district is a model to the Nation for sustainable development that:
      1.   Respects and maintains sensitivity to the natural environment;
      2.   Helps to achieve City and State goals for air and water quality;
      3.   Minimizes resource use;
      4.   Utilizes best available technology and practices to avoid, minimize, manage and mitigate detrimental environmental impacts; and
      5.   Is compatible with and complements other uses within the district and near the district.
The standards and processes stated in this chapter are intended to implement the purpose of the district and the vision, guiding principles, goals, objectives, and policies of Plan Salt Lake and other applicable City plans, such as the Northwest Quadrant Master Plan.
