§ 11-1-3.23 HI, Heavy Industrial District.
A.
Purpose Statement.
The HI, Heavy Industrial District is intended for large-scale basic or primary industrial uses that involve extensive processing, manufacturing or assembly of large products or equipment.
Because of the nature of the products or character of activities, uses within this district will likely produce greater than average negative visual qualities and external effects involving noise, fumes, noxious odors, glare or other atmospheric influence beyond the boundaries of the property on which the use is located. Therefore, these uses are surrounded with similar industrial uses. It is the intent to reserve large tracts exclusively for industrial activities defined herein.
