Brewster City Zoning Code
I-2 INDUSTRIAL
DISTRICT
§ 153.195 PURPOSE.
This district is established to provide for and accommodate industrial uses in the fields of repair, storage, manufacturing, processing, wholesaling and distribution free from the encroachment of residential, retail and institutional uses. The uses most allowed are those which because of their normally unobjectionable characteristics, can be in relatively close proximity to residential and commercial districts.

The Commission may seek expert advice on what conditions should be imposed on the particular industrial operation to reasonably modify any injurious or offensive effects likely to result from such an operation. The cost of securing the expert assistance shall be borne by the applicant. |
