It is the intent of this district to allow desirable and beneficial mixing of light industrial and warehousing businesses and commercial uses totally enclosed within buildings on large, landscaped sites, which will blend harmoniously with their surroundings, and adjacent land uses.

This district is intended primarily for light manufacturing, select warehousing and wholesaling, storage and office uses, with limited provisions for limited commercial uses which, due to their activity and space requirements, are compatible in industrial areas without causing use or other activity conflicts with the primary uses. Commercial uses located in this district are those whose activities are compatible with industrial uses, those which supplement and support surrounding industrial activity and the needs of the employees of nearby firms and those which have extensive space and land area requirements.
