Firebaugh City Zoning Code

§ 25-29.1

Purpose.

The purpose of Firebaugh's Industrial Zones is to provide appropriate locations in the community for industrial uses and related activities. Two zones are established: the M-1 Zone is the "Light Industrial" Zone and provides for uses such as light manufacturing, warehousing, storage, service commercial and similar uses. The M-2 Zone is the "Heavy Industrial" Zone and provides spaces for more intensive industrial and manufacturing activities. Development standards in the Industrial Zones are designed to promote the following:
a. 
To protect appropriate areas for industrial use from intrusion by residences and other inharmonious uses;
b. 
To provide opportunities for certain types of industrial uses to concentrate in mutually beneficial relationships to each other;
c. 
To provide adequate space to meet the needs of modern industrial development, including truck parking, off-street parking and loading;
d. 
To provide industrial employment opportunities for residents of the region;
e. 
To operate in a manner that protects the public health, safety and welfare by ensuring that potential harmful impacts such as noise, vibration, noxious fumes, fire, and explosions, are avoided; and
f. 
To establish standards that result in industrial development that is attractive and functional.
