17.370.010 Purpose.
Industrial Zone. This urban zone allows a wide range of industrial activities including heavy industry such as fabrication, warehousing, processing of raw materials, bulk handling and storage, construction, and heavy transportation. This zone is intended to provide sites for activities which require processing, fabrication, storage, and wholesale trade. Generally, these activities require reasonable accessibility to major transportation corridors including highways, rail, airports or shipping.
Rural Industrial. This zone provides for small-scale light industrial, light manufacturing, recycling, mineral processing, and resource-based goods production uses that are compatible with rural character and do not require an urban level of utilities and services.

a. Lot area – None.
b. Lot width – None.
c. Lot depth – Minimum lot depth shall be two hundred feet.
d. Lot setback – Minimum lot setback shall be one hundred feet for any yard abutting a residential zone, unless berming and landscaping approved by the director is provided which will effectively screen and buffer the industrial activities from the residential zone which it abuts; in which case, the minimum setback shall be fifty feet.
e. Front Yard – Minimum front yard setback shall be forty feet.
f. Side Yard – Minimum side yard setback shall be twenty-five feet.
g. Rear Yard – Minimum rear yard setback shall be twenty feet.
