[Ord. 639, 7/14/1975]
This Industrial District is hereby established to provide areas
in which the principal use of land is for "heavy" commercial activities,
light manufacturing and assembly plants, processing, storage, warehousing,
wholesaling and distribution. It is the intent that permitted uses
are conducted so that noise, odor, dust, and glare of each operation
is completely confined within an enclosed building. These industries
may require direct access to rail, air, or street transportation routes;
however, the size and volume of the raw materials and finished products
involved should not produce the volume of freight generated by the
uses of the General and Heavy Industrial Districts. Regulations herein
are intended to prevent frictions between uses within the district
and also to protect nearby Residential Districts.
[Ord. 639, 7/14/1975]
1.
All of the uses permitted under this section shall have their primary
operations conducted entirely within enclosed buildings. Any article
or material stored temporarily outside of an enclosed building as

walls and fences or evergreen planting, and in no case shall materials
be stacked or stored so as to exceed the height of the screen where
I-1 Districts abut Residential Districts.
A.
All commercial uses.

Watchman's or maintenance man's dwelling quarters, located

[Ord. 639, 7/14/1975]
1.
Front Yard. All buildings shall be set back from road right-of-way
line a minimum of 25 feet.
2.
Side Yard. On corner lots where an I-1 property abuts roads, all
buildings shall set back a minimum of 25 feet from the right-of-way
line. Where any I-1 District abuts a Residential District, a minimum
side yard of 40 feet in depth is required. In all other cases, no
side yards are required.
3.
Rear Yard. Where a building is to be serviced from the side or rear,
there shall be provided an alleyway, service court, rear yard, or
combination thereof of not less than 30 feet in depth. The depth of
a rear yard which abuts a Residential District shall be a minimum
of 40 feet. In all other cases no rear yard shall be required. In
cases where a building is to be served from a railroad siding, no
rear yard shall be required either.
[Ord. 639, 7/14/1975]
Where properties front commonwealth and major local roads or
streets so designated by the county planning director or local Planning
Commission in the temporary absence of a county director, no driveway
ingress and egress points shall be closer than 50 feet measured from
driveway edge to driveway edge, except where a particular lot or unified
contiguous commercial development frontage exists, in which case only
one entrance and one exit are allowable per street side per lot of
unified development. There shall be a maximum width of 25 feet per
driveway entrance and all ingress and egress points shall be located
30 feet from any intersection right-of-way line. The distance along
the road frontage between points of ingress or egress shall contain
a traffic barrier consisting of guard railing, concrete or asphaltic
curbs, guard fencing, solid hedges, or a similar material to prohibit
ingress and egress by vehicles at points other than those designated.
The traffic barriers shall be placed by the property owner fronting
said road. Where the Planning Commission deems it necessary, a service
road shall be provided by the property owner(s) to further limit ingress
and egress points. All points of ingress and egress must be clearly
defined. This section is hereby retroactive and enforceable on existing
properties in this District.
[Ord. 639, 7/14/1975]
All yard areas and open space existing around buildings shall
be landscaped and maintained in a neat condition.
