The Planned Industrial Districts (PID) are intended to permit the creation of defined areas for the unified and orderly development of compatible industrial uses. A PID allows flexibility in planning and development and provides a process for evaluating plans to assure compatibility with adjacent industrial and nonindustrial districts.
The following uses may be permitted in the Planned Industrial District:
A. 
Research, development and testing facilities when in conformance with applicable zoning regulations and other standards and performance standards contained herein.
B. 
Compounding, fabrication, assembly and processing operations similar to but not limited to:
(1) 
Electrical, electronic equipment and appliances, instruments, devices and components.
(2) 
Furniture and furnishings.
(3) 
Musical, scientific, medical, dental and photographic instruments and supplies.
(4) 
Recreational equipment and toys.
(5) 
Clothing and other textile products.

(7) 
Panels, sheets, tubes and rods.
(8)

F. 
Retail sale of products manufactured on site with the Planning Board recommendation and subjected to the Town Board's approval.
G. 
Other industrial uses which, in the opinion of the Planning Board, are similar in nature and scale to those permitted above and consistent with the objectives of the Master Plan.
Parking and loading requirements applicable in the Planned Industrial District are set forth to maintain a flow of traffic. All parking and loading is prohibited in the street. Facilities must be maintained to accommodate the companies' needs.
Sign regulations applicable in the Planned Industrial District are set forth in the Town of Concord Sign Ordinance, §§ 150-129 through 150-139.
All uses in a Planned Industrial District shall adhere to the following standards:
A. 
Dust and smoke. The emission of smoke, soot, fly ash, fumes, dust and other types of air pollution borne by the wind shall be controlled so that the rate of emission and quantity deposited shall not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, comfort or welfare or adversely affect property values.
B. 
Glare and heat. Any operation producing intense glare or heat shall be conducted in such a manner so that the glare or heat shall be completely imperceptible from any point along a lot line.
C. 
Odorous matter. The emission of odorous matter in such quantities as to produce a public nuisance or hazard beyond the lot occupied by the user shall not be permitted.
D. 
Noise. The weighted average sound pressure level as measured at the edge of a lot and which is produced by a mechanical, electrical or other equipment operation on the lot, where said lot is adjacent to a residential area, shall not exceed the average intensity of the street traffic noise in that residential area. No sound shall have objectionable intermittence, volume, beat, frequency or shrillness characteristics. The maximum level shall not exceed 65 decibels on the A-scale measured at any adjacent residential property line.
E. 
Vibration. Every use shall be so operated that the ground vibration inherently and recurrently generated by said use is not perceptible without instruments at any point along any property line of the lot on which the use is located.
F. 
Fire and explosive hazards. The handling, use and nonbulk storage of flammable and combustible materials shall be permitted only in conformance with New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code requirements and in structures having noncombustible exterior walls, and all operations in connection therewith shall be provided with adequate safety and protective devices against hazards of fire and explosion, as well as with adequate fire-fighting and suppression equipment and devices standard to the operation involved, as determined by the Planning Board.
G. 
Toxic or noxious matter. The emission of toxic, noxious or corrosive fumes or gases which would be injurious to property, vegetation, animals or human health at or beyond the boundaries of the lot occupied by the use shall not be permitted.
H. 
Fissionable or radioactive materials. No activities shall be permitted which utilize fissionable or radioactive materials if their use results at any time in the release or emission of fissionable or radioactive material into the atmosphere, the ground or sewerage systems which exceeds New York State regulation or more than 25% above background levels.
I. 
Liquid wastes. New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and/or Health Department approval shall be required prior to the discharge of any liquid wastes unless said waste is discharged in a public sewer system. Liquid wastes discharged into a public sewer shall be in conformity with applicable Federal and/or State Health Department criteria.
A. 
All industrial processes shall take place within an enclosed building. Exterior processing may be approved on an individual-case basis and subject to controls and regulations to be established by the Planning Board. Incidental storage out of doors may be permitted, provided that such materials are shielded from view from public streets and adjacent off-street parking areas by fencing, landscaping or other appropriate measures.
B. 
No permitted or permissible use shall be conducted in any manner which would render it noxious or offensive by reason of dust, refuse matter, odor, smoke, gas, fumes, noise, vibration or glare.
