I-H To provide areas suitable for higher impact industrial uses than are permitted in other industrial zones, and other
uses that are capable of demonstrating, through design, layout and topography, their compatibility with, or non-
intrusion on, existing or future higher impact industrial uses on adjacent or neighboring I-H zoned properties. Due
to the intensity of use, the I-H zone is intended for uses which may require extensive outdoor storage and usage
and may utilize heavy equipment. Processes may require separation from residential or sensitive environmental
areas. The I-H zone is separated from other nonindustrial uses as well as natural or constructed features. High-
impact industrial uses will be of a higher intensity, with a greater lot coverage than the other zones.

A-B To provide an area for the development of airport-related enterprises. Uses permitted in this zone are those
customarily associated with the operation of the airport terminal and individual airlines and accessory uses to
provide for the comfort and convenience of the airport’s patrons and employees.
