Environmental and Operational Restrictions
Industrial zoning imposes strict environmental and safety controls to manage the impact of operations. These limitations are designed to protect air, water, and nearby communities from industrial byproducts.

• Limits on noise, odor, and air emissions
  
• Restrictions on hazardous materials handling and storage
  
• Mandatory compliance with wastewater and stormwater management regulations
  

Land Use and Site Development Restrictions
To ensure compatibility with surrounding areas, industrial zones regulate how land can be developed and used. These include guidelines on setbacks, lot coverage, and buffer zones.

• Minimum setback requirements from roads and property lines
  
• Restrictions on building height and floor area ratio (FAR)
  
• Buffer zones with landscaping or walls near residential or commercial areas
  

Activity and Operational Hour Limitations
Certain activities within industrial zones are controlled or limited based on their impact or location. These rules help mitigate disturbances and improve safety.

• Prohibition of residential and public assembly uses
  
• Restrictions on night-time operations in light industrial areas
  
• Permit requirements for high-impact or conditional activities like recycling or chemical storage
