CHAPTER 17
34 I-2 – GENERAL INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT
§ 17.34.010 Description and purpose.
The I-2 general industrial district is intended to create, preserve and enhance areas for manufacturing, industrial and related establishments, which create no obnoxious impact on abutting properties, but which are essential to the economy of the city and area, and because of their size, traffic generation, transportation needs, water and sewer requirements, and other characteristics need careful consideration as to location. To be consistent with sound planning practice, these districts will be conveniently located near planned or existing major highways and streets, sewer and water facilities and other commercial and industrial land uses.
