18.32.020 Purpose of industrial zoning districts.
The purposes of the individual industrial zoning districts and the manner in which they are applied are as follows.
A. Light Industrial District (LM). The LM zoning district is intended for low to medium intensity uses that involve the manufacture, fabrication, assembly, or processing of primarily finished materials. This zoning district is characterized by medium and large lots and is designed to promote the development of uses such as auto service centers, research and development parks, construction industries, incidental wholesale and retail activity, outdoor storage, and assembly/light manufacturing uses. Residential uses of any kind are prohibited in this district with the exception of emergency shelters. The LM zoning district is consistent with the industrial land use designation of the General Plan.
B. Industrial District (M). The M zoning district is intended to accommodate a broad range of manufacturing and industrial uses. Permitted activity may vary from medium to higher intensity uses that involve the manufacture, fabrication, assembly, or processing of raw and/or finished materials. This zoning district is characterized by large lots and is designed to promote the development of uses such as industrial processing and assembly warehousing. Residential uses of any kind are prohibited in this district. The M zoning district is consistent with the industrial land use designation of the General Plan.
(Ord. 2015-05, Repealed and Replaced, 06/16/2015)
18.32.030 Regulations for industrial zoning districts.
Regulations for industrial zoning districts shall be as follows:
A. Permitted and conditionally permitted uses shall be as specified in Table 18.32-1.
B. Development standards shall be as specified in Section 18.32.050.
C. Off-street parking and loading shall be provided in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 18.48.
D. Signs shall comply with the provisions of Chapter 18.56.
E. Landscaping and screening shall be provided in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 18.52.
F. No building, structure, vehicle, or land shall be used nor shall any building, structure or vehicle be erected, altered, moved, enlarged, or stored below the established base flood elevation (as shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and including any letter of map amendments (LOMAs) and letter of map revisions (LOMRs)). If no base flood elevation exists and there is a likelihood that the property is subject to flooding, the applicant shall submit a hydrological survey that establishes the base flood elevation. No area lying below base flood elevation shall be used in any manner so as to create problems inimical to the public health, safety or general welfare or so as to have a detrimental effect on the use or value of property in the vicinity or within the City as a whole.
G. In addition to the uses permitted in Table 18.32-1, and subject to the requirements of the applicable uniform codes, the following uses are allowed in all zoning districts without a permit.
1. Gardens, the primary purpose of which is to provide food for noncommercial use.
2. Keeping of four (4) or fewer dogs of more than four (4) months of age.
3. City or City-approved wells, water treatment plants, lift stations, substations, and similar facilities.

18.32.040 Industrial zoning districts land uses and permit requirements.
A. Table 18.32-1 identifies the uses of land allowed by this Development Code in each industrial zoning district, and the land use permit required to establish each use, in compliance with Chapter 18.68. Uses are permitted or prohibited in accordance with Table 18.32-1 and provided they conform to all provisions of this title. The letter “N” indicates the use is prohibited in the corresponding zoning district. The letter “P” indicates the use is permitted in the corresponding zoning district. The letter “M” indicates the use is permitted in the corresponding zoning district subject to approval of a minor use permit (see Section 18.68.120). The letter “C” indicates the use is permitted in the corresponding zoning district subject to approval of a conditional use permit (see Section 18.68.130). If a proposed use does not appear in this table, the proposed use is considered a prohibited use, unless it is determined to be similar to a use specified in this table in accordance with Section 18.68.090. Footnote numbers in Table 18.32-1 correspond to numbers in subsection B of this section.
