(1) The Freeway Industrial (FI) zone is established to provide areas in the community where clean, non-polluting industrial and manufacturing uses may be located in an environment which protects them from encroachment of commercial and residential uses. The Freeway Industrial (FI) zone is intended to be located along the I-15 freeway in areas which are readily accessible to railroads, and major arterial and collector roads. The intent of the zone is to provide flexibility of land uses without encouraging general traffic through residential areas.

(2) The Freeway Industrial (FI) zone is characterized by enclosed manufacturing, processing, and assembly uses. Front facade building materials are regulated in this zone to enhance the visual appeal of the freeway corridor. Peripheral landscaping will be provided where appropriate, to reduce the effects of the detrimental characteristics of permitted uses and to enhance the appearance of the FI zone.

(1) Those uses or categories of uses as listed herein, and no others, are permitted in the FI zone.

(2) All uses contained herein are listed by number as designated in the Standard Land Use Code published and maintained by the Planing Commission. Specific uses are identified by a four (4) digit number in which all digits are whole numbers. Classes or groupings of such uses permitted in the last one (1) or two (2) digits are zeros.
