The office/research park and technology district is intended to provide for large attractively landscaped low density sites primarily along an interstate or expressway corridor. The area is appropriate for regional and/or national businesses and offices, including research activities and some specialized unobjectionable ultralight industrial activities which take advantage of the transportation corridor but are low intensity and sufficiently restricted to be compatible with adjacent residential and commercial development. This may include manufacturing, processing, packaging, assembly or treatment of finished or semifinished products from previously prepared materials. This district is intended to have a green/open space atmosphere conducive to quality development with the preservation of significant natural features. No outdoor storage is allowed in this district, and all operations must be in an enclosed building. (Ord. 1301, 3-15-2004)
