Heavy Industrial District M-H#
Sec. 10-6.4701. - M-H District.#
The regulations set forth in this article shall apply in the Heavy Industrial District. The purpose of the M-H District is to permit the normal operations of almost all industries, subject only to those regulations needed to control congestion; manage traffic circulation; provide fire and natural hazard protection; protect the surrounding areas or adjoining premises; and protect industrial areas from intrusion by nonindustrial activities. A differentiation is made in the M-H District between uses allowed by right and those allowed by use permit. Uses requiring use permits have a greater potential for negative impacts to the health, safety, and general welfare of the neighborhood. Conditioning and monitoring such uses will ensure their compatibility with the area.

Sec. 10-6.4702. - Uses permitted.#
