M Manufacturing District
§ 350-901 Purpose.
The Manufacturing District is intended to permit and encourage the establishment of industrial land uses on appropriate sites within the Township. The Manufacturing District encompasses a class of uses that will be compatible with surrounding or abutting, less-intensive land uses, and includes industries that are characterized as needing sites of several acres or more, develop attractive facilities and contain processes that are inoffensive to both man and the environment. It seeks to achieve optimum utilization of areas devoted to these uses, and discourages any use which would substantially interfere with the development, continuation or expansion of such industrial uses. The Manufacturing District is further intended to promote the harmonious development of Southampton Township while permitting economic diversification and increased employment opportunities for its citizens.
