The following regulations shall apply in the A-I-1 and A-I-2
Airport Industrial Zones unless otherwise provided in this title.
(Ord. 3690, 1974; Ord. 5025, 1997)
It is the intent of the Airport Industrial Zones to provide
area for light industrial and manufacturing uses, such as research
and development, electronic products manufacture and similar uses,
subject to performance and development standards, consistent with
the policies contained in the Airport Industrial Area Specific Plan,
also known as Specific Plan #6. Specific Plan #6 provides for a graduated
change in intensity with more intense development closer to Hollister
Avenue in the A-I-2 Zone, including commercial services, such as branch
bank, printing and photographic shop, convenience store, secretarial
service and restaurant, and light industrial uses. Intensity decreases
in the A-I-1 Zone toward the railroad tracks where open yard uses,
such as outdoor storage, and contractor's, lumber, sand and brick
yards, are allowed. The A-I-1 and A-I-2 Zones define where different
intensities of use are allowed in accordance with the Specific Plan.
Establishment of commercial services to serve employees of businesses
within the Airport Specific Plan area will help reduce traffic. The
City of Santa Barbara believes that it is important to minimize direct
conflicts between the Airport and Goleta commercial areas; therefore,
general commercial retail uses are not allowed because these uses
are available in Old Town Goleta and other nearby areas.
(Ord. 3690, 1974; Ord. 5025, 1997)
Any of the following uses, provided that such operations are
not obnoxious or offensive by reason of emission or odor, dust, gas,
fumes, smoke, liquids, wastes, noise, vibrations, disturbances or
other similar causes which may impose hazard to life or property.
Whether such obnoxious or offensive qualities exist or are likely
to result from a particular operation or use shall be determined from
the point of view of all immediately adjoining land and uses and considering
the performance and development standards to which they are subject.
