§ 380-10.06 Performance standards.
In reviewing site plans for proposed development in the Industrial District, the Planning Commission shall consider the degree to which a proposed use may result in any effects that may create any dangerous, injurious, noxious or otherwise objectionable element or condition so as to adversely affect the surrounding area or adjoining premises; provided, however, any use permitted in this chapter may be undertaken and maintained if the site plan includes measures acceptable to the Planning Commission to limit dangerous or objectionable effects on adjoining properties, as established by the following performance requirements:
A.
Sound. The emission of noise measurable in decibels (dB) on a persistent or frequently recurrent basis from the premises shall not exceed the sound levels outlined in the table below, when measured at any property line. These regulations do not apply to construction activities, maintenance activities, noises of safety signals, warning devices, emergency pressure relief valves, or special community events approved by Township Board.
Receiving Property | |||
|---|---|---|---|
Source of Sound | Residential (dB) | Commercial (dB) | Industrial (dB) |
Residential | 50 | 57 | 60 |
Commercial | 55 | 60 | 65 |
Industrial | 55 | 65 | 70 |
B.
Vibration. All machinery shall be so mounted and operated as to prevent transmission of ground vibration exceeding a displacement of 0.003 inch measured at any lot line of its source. Vibration from sound or noise at any lot line shall not be so intrusive as to interfere with normal daily activities in adjoining land uses.
C.
Odor. The emission of noxious, odorous matter in such quantities as to be readily detectable at a point along any lot lines, when diluted in the ratio of one volume of odorous air to four or more volumes of clean air, so as to produce a public nuisance or hazard beyond lot lines.
D.
Toxic gases. The escape or emission of any gas, which is injurious or destructive or explosive, shall be unlawful and shall be summarily abated, as directed.
E.
Glare and heat. Any operation producing intense glare or heat shall be performed within an enclosure so as to completely obscure and shield such operation from direct view from any point along the lot line, except during the period of construction of the facilities to be used and occupied.
F.
Light. All lighting shall be arranged to reflect light away from adjacent parcels and must follow the standards outlined in § 380-12.12.
G.
Electromagnetic radiation. The rules and regulations of the Federal Communications Commission, as amended, with respect to the propagation and dissemination of electromagnetic radiation must be followed and are hereby made a part of this chapter.
H.
Drifted and blown material. The drifting or airborne transmission beyond the lot line of soot, particles, or debris from any stockpile shall be unlawful and shall be summarily abated, as directed.
I.
Smoke, dust, dirt, and fly ash. It shall be unlawful to discharge into the atmosphere from any single source of emission whatsoever any air contaminator, for a period or periods aggregating more than three minutes in any 60 minutes, which is more than 40% opaque.
