The following performance standards shall apply
to all permitted and accessory uses within the M-1 District and any
other use, existing or proposed, which the Zoning Board of Appeals,
Planning Board, Board of Trustees, or the Code Enforcement Officer
has reasonable grounds to believe is violating these standards.
A. Sound. The volume of sound inherently and recurrently
generated shall be controlled so as not to become a nuisance to adjacent
uses.
B. Smoke and particulate matter. All uses shall meet
all requirements of the county, Village, town, state and federal air
pollution standards established, now or hereafter, in the district
in which the use is located. No smoke shall be emitted in any such
quantity as to become a nuisance.
C. Noise. All noise shall be muffled so as not to be
objectionable beyond the lot line due to intermittence, beat frequency,
or shrillness, in accordance with accepted sound-pressure levels as
established by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration or
similar regulatory agencies of the local, state, or federal government
or such governmental bodies themselves.
D. Vibration. An operation which creates intense earthshaking
vibration, i.e., heavy drop forges or heavy hydraulic surges, shall
not be discernible beyond the property lines of the industry.
E. Radioactivity. The emission of any radiation, be it
either nuclear or radio frequencies in nature, is prohibited without
the approval of the Village, town, state and federal governments or
agencies thereof having jurisdiction and the Chemung County Board
of Health or its successor, and in no event shall there be any radiation
permitted beyond the lot lines in any district.
F. Odor. No emission of odorous gas or other odorous
matter in such quantity as to be readily detectable at any point along
lot lines without the use of instruments shall be permitted.
G. Toxic or noxious matter. No discharge beyond lot lines
of any toxic or noxious matter in such quantity as to be detrimental
to or endanger the public health, safety, comfort or welfare or cause
injury or damage to property or business shall be permitted.
H. Glare. No direct or reflected glare shall be detectable
from any residence zone boundary.
I. Heat. No direct or reflected heat shall be detectable
from any residence zone boundary.
J. Dust and fly ash. No solid or liquid particles shall
be emitted in such quantity as to be readily detectable at any point
along lot lines or as to produce a public nuisance or hazard beyond
lot lines.
K. Light. Exterior lighting shall be controlled so as
not to become a nuisance to adjacent lots.
