A.
The intent of the Office District is to promote the
orderly and harmonious development of land for high quality office
uses and for service activities which support and add value to such
uses in accordance with the objectives and policies of the Comprehensive
Plan of the Village of Islandia, to discourage the development of
retail or industrial related uses which may detract from the quality
of such development or interfere with the functioning of the district
and to ensure a high level of design and site development standards.
The Village's potential growth is limited by its geographic location,
the proximity of highly travelled major arteries, its limited fiscal
resources and the limited physical capacity of its infrastructure.
The Village intends to prevent excessive traffic on the streets of
the Village and to reduce and control off-site traffic circulation.
B.
The intent of the Office/Industry District is to continue
the orderly mixed-use development consisting of high quality, nonintensive
light industrial and warehouse uses along with office development
in accordance with appropriate standards of design and site development.
C.
The intent of the Industrial District is to allow
for the development of more intensive industrial developments according
to more permissive design and site development standards, but mindful
of the need to protect the Village from adverse environmental impacts
and safeguard the public health, safety and general welfare. Included
among the specific objectives are the following:
(1)
To provide sufficient space in appropriate locations
to meet the needs of the Village's expected future economy for all
types of industrial and related activities, with due allowance for
the need for the choice of sites.
(2)
To prohibit the development of residential or residentially
related uses within the district and to provide adequate separation,
transitional land uses and buffering where industrial districts are
adjacent to residential districts.
(3)
To ensure industrial development which is free from
danger of fire, explosions, toxic and noxious matter, radiation and
other hazards and from offensive noise, vibrations, smoke, dust and
other particulate matter, odorous matter, heat, humidity, glare and
other objectionable influences by permitting such development in areas
where this chapter restricts the emission of such nuisances without
regard to the industrial products and process enveloped.
(4)
To protect adjacent residential and other areas and
to protect the labor force in other establishments engaged in less
offensive types of industry and related activities by restricting
those activities which involve danger of fire, explosions, toxic and
noxious matter, radiation and other hazards or create offensive noise,
vibrations, smoke and other particulate matter, odorous matter, heat,
humidity, glare and other objectionable influences to those limited
areas which are appropriate therefor.
(5)
To protect existing industrial districts and neighboring
districts from traffic congestion, noise, glare, vibration, odors,
air pollution and unsightly views by incorporating sound standards
of site development and design by placing limits on the size, location
and configuration of site development elements, including buildings,
loading, on-site circulation, off-street parking and storage.
(6)
To promote the most desirable use of land in accord
with a well-considered plan, to promote stability of industry and
related development, to strengthen the economic base of the Village,
to protect the character of the district and its particular suitability
for particular uses and to conserve the value of land and buildings.
This table is provided at the end of this chapter.
