M-1.01 INTENT

and DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT The M-1 District is intended to control the development of lands to be used by industrial firms that have high standards of performance and that can locate in close proximity to business uses, and in locations convenient to residential areas, without creating nuisances. The district regulations are designed to permit the operations of most manufacturing, wholesaling, and warehousing activities with adequate protection to adjacent district uses and sufficient control of external effects to protect one industry from another. Some retail uses are permitted that service the industrial uses within the industrial area or that do not depend upon intensive visits of retail customers. In this district, outdoor storage must be completely screened and all industrial operations must be in an enclosed building.

Dates: an Iowa ordinance takes effect when it is published after adoption. Where the clerk's certificate records the publication date it is used; otherwise the adoption date stands in for it. "Not yet consolidated" means the ordinance amends this section but its new text has not been checked into this compilation yet: read the ordinance.
