Editor's Note: This local law also repealed former Art. IX, Industrial District.
A. 
The purpose of this district is to provide areas in the Town for a mix of well-planned and well-designed light industrial and business park uses that are compatible with community aesthetics, aquifer protection as well as adjacent agricultural, residential, business and commercial uses.

B. 
Light manufacturing/assembly uses to be encouraged are industrial processes which are normally conducted entirely within an enclosed building, and which do not emit any odor, noxious fumes or degraded air emissions, smoke, degraded water quality, noise, heat, vibration, glare or radiation that is detectable at the property line and that do not pose a significant public safety or health hazard or significant adverse effect to the natural environment. Areas proposed to be so zoned shall be served by sanitary sewers, adequate drainage control and/or storm sewers and public water.

In addition to the requirements of this article, compliance with provisions of Article X, Aquifer Protection District, is required.
