CHAPTER 17
34 LIGHT MANUFACTURING DISTRICT M-1
§ 17.34.010 Purpose.
The purpose of this district is to implement the comprehensive plan by providing for planned development of large land areas, in appropriate locations, exclusively for industrial and subordinate uses which provide support services to the district. The light manufacturing district is a light industrial zoning classification suitable for the manufacture, distribution and assembly of finished products that have a relatively light impact on adjacent uses and are primarily conducted in an enclosed structure. Master planning of the entire industrial site is encouraged to ensure compatibility between industrial operations, as well as the existing and future character of adjacent areas.
