The new zoning district, <br />called General Industrial, combines the uses permitted or conditional in the existing I-1 and I-2 zoning <br />districts. The intent is to remove less intense uses from the urban services district and encourage them in <br />the I-3 zone, a zone intended to be outside the urban services district. <br />As of this writing, the Council has not approved the C-rdinance, directing staff to make some non- <br />substantive changes prior to formal adoption. Formal adoption is expected August 2, 2010. <br />The parcels are currently zoned either I-1 or I-2. The rezoning, if approved, would be consistent with the <br />Comprehensive Plan. <br />All permitted uses in the I-1 and I-2 zones are pernitted in the I-3 zone, with the exception of water and <br />sewage facilities. All conditional uses in the current I-2 zone are permitted in the I-3 district. The zone <br />change is not intended or expected to alter the use of any existing businesses lawfully operating as of <br />today. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT <br />None <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />^ Location Map <br />^ Draft of the I-3 Zoning district <br />Action Motion by Second by Vote <br />Follow Up <br />N:\Departments\Comrrunurun;tyDevelopment\Plarming\Case F$es\ZC\ZC 10-07I1 and I2\ZC 10-071-3 staff report to PC 8-3-10.doc <br />
