or manufacturing activities, and other activities or emissions that could have a detri-
mental impact on surrounding residential or business uses.

to support such uses. The provision of adequate facilities such as roads, water, sewer,
electrical, telephone, and natural gas systems should be considered in review of an
industrial rezoning request.
v. Industrial districts should incorporate the provision of safe, convenient, and attractive
pedestrian access to nearby residential areas and to local businesses for ancillary retail
services and goods.
