§ 25-5.13

Performance Standards for All Uses.

An application for a permit shall provide documentation that the intended use will comply with the performance standards enumerated below. In the case of a structure being built where the future use is not known, a construction permit may be issued with the condition that no Certificate of Occupancy will be issued until such time as this documentation is submitted with respect to the particular occupant. A new application and a new Certificate of Occupancy shall be required in the event of a change of any use of any structure.
a. 
Electrical and/or Electronic Radiation Control. All electrical or electronic devices located within the boundaries of a dwelling unit, manufacturing, industrial or commercial building, medical clinic or professional office shall be subject to the provisions of Public Law 90-602, 90th Congress, HR 10790, dated October 18, 1968, entitled "An Act for the Protection of Public Health and Safety from the Dangers of Electronic Product Radiation." Radiation products as defined in DHEW Publication No. (FDA) 75-8003 shall be so limited and controlled so that no measurable energy can be recorded at any point beyond the property boundaries. Applicant shall, upon request, produce certified data wherein measurements made in accordance with the procedure and standards set forth in the DHEW Publication No. (FDA) 75-8003 adequately demonstrate compliance to the minimum standards established by the Act. All other forms of electromagnetic radiation lying between 100 KHz and 10 GHz shall be restricted to the technical limits established in the Federal Communication Commission's Rules and Regulations.

Glare. No use shall produce a strong, dazzling light or reflection of a strong, dazzling light or glare beyond its lot lines. Exterior lighting shall be shielded, buffered and directed so that glare, direct light or reflection will not become a nuisance to adjoining properties, adjoining dwelling units, adjoining districts or streets.

e. 
Odor. Odors shall not be discernible at the lot line or beyond.
f. 
Storage and Waste Disposal. No materials or wastes shall be deposited upon a lot in such form or manner that they may be transferred off the lot by natural causes or forces nor shall any substance be deposited which can contaminate an underground aquifer or otherwise render such underground aquifer undesirable as a source of water supply or recreation, or which will destroy aquatic life. All materials or wastes which might cause fumes or dust or which constitute a fire hazard or which may be edible or otherwise attractive to rodents or insects shall be stored indoors and enclosed in appropriate containers adequate to eliminate such hazards.
g. 
Vibration. There shall be no vibration which is discernible to the human sense of feeling beyond the immediate site on which such use is located.
