Subdividers Ordinance

INDUSTRIAL DISTRICTS RESTRICTED AND GENERAL INTENT AND DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICTS This district intends to establish industrial districts and regulations that govern the location, intensity, and method of development of the industrial areas of the City. The regulations are designed to provide for the grouping together of industries that are compatible to one another and that are not objectionable to the community as a whole. The regulations are intended to preserve the lands for industrial and allied uses and prohibit the intrusion of residential and other non- compatible uses into the industrial area. The performance of the industrial uses is regulated by standards for the external effects of noise, smoke, vibration, and other potential nuisances. Applicants for industrial zoning are encouraged to apply for such zoning only in areas designated for industrial usage on the official "Land Use Plan of the City of Tiffin." Industrial uses are grouped into two classifications: M-1 = Restricted Industrial District M-2 = General Industrial District For purposes of determining the restrictiveness of the two industrial zoning classifications, M-1 must be considered the most restrictive (light) industrial district, and M-2 must be considered the least restrictive (heavy) industrial district. 67 Adopted November 14, 2007
