In addition to the objectives prescribed in Section 18.04.010 of this title, the I industrial districts are included in this title to achieve the following purposes:
A.
The provisions of this chapter shall be
administered and enforced in a manner to clearly establish the objectives
and to express the desire of the city, community organizations and
civic groups to locate industrial development in the Pleasanton area;
B.
To reserve appropriately located areas
for industrial plants and related activities;
C.
To protect areas appropriate for industrial
use from intrusion by dwellings and other inharmonious uses;
D.
To protect residential and commercial properties
and to protect nuisance free, nonhazardous industrial uses from noise,
odor, insect nuisance, dust, dirt, smoke, vibration, heat and cold,
glare, truck and rail traffic and other objectionable influences,
and from fire, explosion, noxious fumes, radiation and other hazards
incidental to certain industrial uses;
E.
To provide opportunities for certain types
of industrial plants to concentrate in mutually beneficial relationship
to each other;
F.
To provide adequate space to meet the needs
of modern industrial development, including off-street parking and
truck loading areas and landscaping;
G.
To provide sufficient open space around
industrial structures to protect them from the hazard of fire and
to minimize the impact of industrial plants on nearby residential
and agricultural districts;
H.
To minimize traffic congestion and to avoid
the overloading of utilities by preventing the construction of buildings
of excessive size in relation to the amount of land around them.
(Prior code § 2-7.17)
The special purposes of the I-P district
are as follows:
A.
To establish and maintain high standards
of site planning, architecture and landscape design that will create
an environment attractive to the most discriminating industries and
research and development establishments seeking sites in northern
California;
B.
To provide locations for industries that
can operate in close proximity to commercial and residential uses
with minimum mutual adverse impact;
C.
To protect light industrial and related
uses from nuisances associated with heavy industrial uses.
(Prior code § 2-7.18)
The special purpose of the I-G district
is to provide locations where industries that are incompatible with
most other land uses can operate with minimum restriction and without
adverse effect on other uses.
(Prior code § 2-7.18(a))
All uses shall comply with the regulations prescribed in Chapter 18.84 of this title and with the additional regulations prescribed in this section. The zoning administrator may require submission of evidence of ability to comply with the required conditions or of maintenance of the required conditions as prescribed in Chapter 18.128 of this title regarding determination of compliance with required conditions.
(Prior code § 2-7.19; Ord. 2155 § 3, 2017)
In an I-P district, no use except
a temporary construction operation shall be permitted which creates,
at any point beyond the boundaries of the site, noise of a maximum
sound pressure level greater than the values given in the following
table. In an I-G district no use except a temporary construction operation
shall be permitted which creates, at any R or O district boundary,
noise of a maximum sound pressure level greater than the values given
in the following table. The sound pressure levels shall be measured
in decibels 0.002 dynes per square centimeter with a sound level meter
and associated octave band filter conforming to standards prescribed
by the American Standards Association.

No use shall be permitted which creates
annoying odor in such quantities as to be readily detectable beyond

(Prior code § 2-7.19(3); Ord. 2155 § 3, 2017)

the site.

No use except a temporary construction operation shall be permitted which creates changes in temperature or direct or sky reflected glare, detectable by the human senses without the aid of instruments beyond the boundaries of the site. No use shall be permitted which creates electrical disturbances that affect the operation of any equipment beyond the boundaries of the site. No exterior illumination closer than 200 feet to the boundaries of a site or interior illumination closer than 10 feet to a window within 200 feet of the boundary of a site and visible beyond the boundary of a site, whether related to a sign or not, shall exceed the intensity permitted by Chapter 18.96 of this title relating to illumination.
