Staff suggests adding light and heavy manufacturing definitions to the same code review
Summary
Staff told the committee they are also reviewing definitions for light and heavy manufacturing and suggested folding those definitions into the same code update to improve consistency and reduce subjective interpretations across similar industrial uses.
Staff told the committee they are examining the citys definitions for light and heavy manufacturing and recommended the committee consider adding those items to the automotive repair review. The stated rationale was consistency: similar interpretive issues arise in manufacturing and industrial definitions as do in automotive repair, and a single, coordinated code review could reduce repeated interpretation over time.
Chair Margaret Lutt agreed she would entertain widening the scope pending confirmation from the city attorney and appropriate agenda posting. Staff said they would include manufacturing-related language and historical context when they return with formal proposals.
