The term "light" refers to performance characteristics. Uses
included in the category are warehousing and industries which may
produce some noise, traffic congestion or danger but which are of
such scale or character that they present no serious hazard to neighboring
premises from fire, smoke, noise or odors. In addition, office buildings
are permitted, whether owner-occupied or leased.

at any point on the lot line.
[Ord. No. 2000-46 §1(14-02), 4-10-2000]
A.
The
Planning and Zoning Commission shall have the responsibility of issuing
special use permits for activities which may pose a problem with respect
to noise, pollution, vibration or due to the injurious nature of a
manufacturing activity. All manufacturing activities that the Zoning
Administrator, City Engineer, City Health Officer or Chief of the
Fire Department deem as potentially hazardous to the citizens of Chillicothe
shall be required to obtain a conditional use permit prior to construction.
Said conditional use permit may set forth minimum standards for operation
and may be valid for a defined time period.
B.
Uses
authorized upon issuance of a conditional use permit include, but
are not limited to, the following:
1.
Wrecking and salvage yards. Junk yards, including
automobile wrecking and industrial metal and waste salvage, but not
including refuse or garbage disposal, if located at least one hundred
(100) feet from any residential zone, provided all operations are
conducted within an area enclosed with a wooden, metal or plastic
fence eight (8) feet in height, in which the cracks are less than
fifteen percent (15%) of the total area. The posts and supports shall
face the junk yard.
2.
Railroad yard and freight station. If located not
less than two hundred (200) feet from any residential zone.
3.
Other uses. The following uses may be authorized
as a conditional use if located at least four hundred (400) feet from
any residential zone and if the location of such use has been approved
by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
[Ord. No. 2000-46 §1(14-03), 4-10-2000]
A.
Residential. Dwellings, dwelling units and residence of
any kind, including hotels, motels, rooming houses and tourist homes.
B.

[Ord. No. 2000-46 §14-04), 4-10-2000; Ord. No. 2006-91 §1, 9-11-2006]
A.
Lot Coverage. Structures shall not cover more than eighty
percent (80%) of the lot area.
B.
Yards. All structures shall be built at least thirty-five
(35) feet from the front property line and twenty (20) feet from all
other property lines.
C.
On-Lot Parking. Adequate on-lot, one (1) parking space
per employee per shift shall be provided for all employees and visitors.
D.
On-Lot Parking, Loading And Unloading Facilities. Each
structure or use shall provide on-lot loading and unloading facilities
which shall not block a street, alley or other public way.
E.
Storage. All bulk storage must be within the confines of
structures or properly screened from front site view, except that
certain non-putrescible commodities may be stored out-of-doors during
a peak production or utilization season. In addition, grain may be
stored out-of-doors on a temporary, seasonal basis so as to meet the
demands of harvest season. Such out-of-doors storage of grain shall
not exceed six (6) months (one hundred eighty (180) days) in duration
at any one time.
F.
Screening. All principal, accessory and conditional uses,
except business signs which are situated within fifty (50) feet of
a residential district, shall be screened and buffered from such district
by a separation of open space which shall have a minimum depth of
thirty (30) feet and shall include a required fence or vegetative
screening of not less than ninety percent (90%) opacity and not less
than eight (8) feet in height above the level of the residential district
property at the district boundary. Walls or fences of lesser heights
or planting screens may be permitted by the Planning and Zoning Commission
if there is a finding that the nature or extent of the use being screened
is such that a lesser degree of screening will adequately promote
and protect the use and enjoyment of the properties within the adjacent
residential district or there is a finding that a screening of the
type required by this Chapter would interfere with the provision of
adequate amounts of light and air to same said properties. Loading
docks in the "I-1" Light Industrial District shall be screened so
as not to be visible from any public street right-of-way within a
residential district. All required screening devices shall be designed
so that they are architecturally harmonious with the principal structures
on the site and they shall be properly maintained so as not to become
unsightly, hazardous or less opaque than when originally constructed.
G.
Business To Be Confined To Owner Lots. All businesses,
services and processing associated with businesses are to be conducted
on the primary lot owned or leased by the business, without need for
storage of inventory, vehicles or product of any kind on City rights-of-way
or on other (third (3rd) party) property.
