General Plan Designation <br /> <br />Light Industrial Incubator Overlay <br /> <br />7. Zoning <br /> <br />Light Industrial Incubator Zoning District (LII) <br /> <br />8. Description of Project <br /> <br />The project includes amending Article 17A Light Industrial Incubator Zoning District in the Redwood City <br />Zoning Ordinance to update the “Purpose” (sec 17A.1) and “Allowed Land Uses” (sec 17A.2) to be <br />more in accordance with the character of the General Plan. A small typo is fixed in Table A.3. <br /> <br />The LII Zoning District was adopted in 2013 as a new land use designation for improved implementation <br />of new policies created through the 2010 General Plan Update. The original intention was to allow for a <br />wider array of businesses in an existing light industrial area such as start-ups, green businesses, and <br />research and development businesses. <br /> <br />There will be no changes to any development standards including: height, setbacks, density, floor area, <br />noise, stormwater, or architectural regulations. The area of the existing zoning district will not be <br />reduced or increased. The proposed updated land use table better aligns with the General Plan <br />category. <br /> <br />• Adjust the purpose statement to better reflect the type of uses that are controlled in the use table. For example, <br />the use table does not discuss “green technology” or “health research” as use types; <br />8.C. - Page 16
