(C) District
VI - Light and Heavy Industrial.
Light industrial is
industry that is usually less capital-intensive than heavy industry,
and is more consumer-oriented than business-oriented (for example,
most light industry products are produced for and users rather than
as intermediates for use by other industries). Light industry facilities
typically have less environmental impact that those associated with
heavy industry, and zoning laws are more likely to permit light industry
near residential areas. It is the production of small consumer goods.
Some but not all example of light industry would be water company
office, construction office, equipment yard with motor grader tractors,
trailers, backhoe, track hoe, trucks, clay pit, earth extraction,
storage of road material and the like.
