Due to recent court decisions, specifically the Byrd V. Franklin County judicial decision, staff is concerned about having inconsistency with <br />respect to what is considered an allowable land use. Staff had already been working on a comprehensive re-configuration of the existing tables outlining <br />permitted uses but, after conferring with the Attorney’s office, it was decided to complete work on this specific component at this time. The manufacturing <br />section of the general use zoning district (i.e., I-1 ; I-2 ; I-3) is now consistent, with respect to the uses listed, as those addressed in the EDH districts. <br />26 Currently, allowable uses within the various Industrial districts are based on anticipated off-site impacts and rely on the determination of the Planning <br />Department. This can no longer be relied upon and specific permitted/prohibited uses need to be listed. <br /> 69 69
