A. The purpose and intent of a Heavy Industrial (I-3) District is to provide locations for intense manufacturing uses which process raw materials. This district should not be located adjacent to existing or proposed residential, office or commercial areas.
B. An I-3 District should generally be located in areas with access to arterial or collector roads and, where practical, in locations where rail and water access is available. This district should generally be buffered from residential, office or commercial districts by less intense uses. Sites should be designed to ensure maximum compatibility with, and minimal impact on, existing and future residential development in the area.
