§ 46-596. Intent.

The M-2 general manufacturing district is intended to provide for the same type of manufacturing and fabricating operations and uses as in the M-1 district, plus more intensive uses. However, these operations and uses shall be provided in those areas where the relationships to surrounding land use would create fewer problems of compatibility. The M-2 general manufacturing district also permits those activities generally perceived as being of a nuisance nature or considered to be hazardous. All uses in this district must meet state industrial standards, as well as performance standards set forth in article VI of this chapter. Such districts should not normally abut directly upon residential, commercial or institutional districts.
