Committee defers adding grinding operations to heavy manufacturing zoning until map provided
Summary
Staff proposed explicitly allowing 'general grinding operations' in heavy manufacturing districts and defining the use; council members requested a map of existing heavy industrial areas and deferred the item to January for further review.
Planning staff recommended adding language to the ordinance to spell out 'general grinding operations' as a specified use in heavy manufacturing areas, and explained that heavy manufacturing already calls out obnoxious noise, vibration, smoke, fumes and odors.
Council members asked whether grinding operations should be permitted or conditional uses and requested a map of existing heavy manufacturing (HI) areas to assess where such operations might go; a motion to defer the item until January and provide mapping was made and seconded.
