Rohnert Park Municipal Code § 17.06.100 Permitted uses

The industrial district is intended to provide appropriate areas for businesses that manufacture, process, assemble, repair, or otherwise create and maintain goods, merchandise and equipment. The district is designed to provide for the effective integration of industrial areas with adjacent uses, so that impacts related to traffic, noise, illumination, smoke, hazardous materials and other potential concerns are minimized. The industrial district is also intended to foster the development of an industrial base that will benefit existing and future residents of the city and the surrounding region. (Ord. 695 § 3, 2003)
