1. Purpose and intent.

The purpose and intent of the industrial performance standards is to provide reasonable measures to protect residential and business districts from the potentially negative impacts of odor, glare, and vibration which may be associated with industrial uses.

2. Glare provisions:
  1. Every industrial use shall be so operated as to prevent the emission of glare of such intensity as to be readily perceptible beyond the lot line of the property on which the use is located.
  2. Outdoor lighting including the illumination of the parking areas, pedestrian paths, signage, and spot lighting used for aesthetic, or decorative reasons is exempted from this provision except that such outdoor lighting shall be designed to minimize the illumination cast on adjacent residential areas by directing such lights, if possible, toward the interior of the industrial property and/or by reducing the wattage or candle power of the lights.
3. Vibration provisions:
  1. Every industrial use shall be so operated as to prevent perceptible vibrations beyond the lot line of the property on which the use is located.
  2. Industrial operations proposing to use vibration causing equipment shall either increase the building setback or pad the base on which the equipment will rest to insure adequate ground area or padding to absorb all vibrations prior to them moving off the industrial property in any perceptible quantity.
4. Odor provisions:

(a) Every use shall be so operated as to prevent the emission of odors in such concentration as to be readily perceptible at any point at or beyond the property line.

5. Noise provisions:

(a) Refer to the City of Flagler Beach Noise Ordinance.

(a) No site plan in this district shall be approved without a signed and sealed report from an appropriately qualified certified engineer stating that all performance standards will be met.

The provisions of this section shall be enforced by the special magistrate or code enforcement board.
