Purpose. The purpose and intent of the MU-O District is to implement the future land use vision and goals of the Town of Clarkson Comprehensive Plan. The application of the MU-O shall maintain and enhance the District as a location for the provision of medical and professional offices, services, and a variety of residential uses in close proximity. Future development in the MU-O District should enhance the character and walkability of the areas through streetscaping and landscaping improvements - building off of the walkable and dense development pattern of the Village of Brockport to the south, and providing continuous pedestrian connections to the public right-of-way. Any proposed development shall not detract from the desired character of the streetscape and quality of life for adjacent neighborhoods, using landscaping and screening, and other mitigating site design elements as appropriate.

A. 
Purpose. The purpose of the MU-I District is to provide for increased economic development opportunity where the provision of low-impact commercial and light industrial uses is desired. The intent of the MU-I District is to permit the continuation and protection of low intensity, enclosed industrial uses in combination with limited commercial uses. Light Industrial uses allowable within this District shall be operated within an enclosed building and employ techniques to minimize negative impacts (including, but not limited to traffic, parking, glare, noise, dust, odor, etc.) on adjacent non-industrial uses, especially established residential districts and environmentally sensitive areas. The architectural treatment and general appearance of all buildings and grounds shall be of such quality and design as to be a visual asset to the area in which they are located as well as adjacent properties.
