Zoning

General Industrial District

   

The subject property is zoned GI, a general industrial classification.  The zoning authority is Polk County.  GI districts have been established “to provide areas for the orderly development of a wide range of industrial uses in locations where extensive industrial operations can be conducted without creating adverse impacts on non-industrial districts or uses.”  The Polk County Comprehensive Plan designates the future land use for the subject as IND., a General Industrial classification.  The subject’s existing manufacturing use or any general industrial use would be legal and conforming use under both the existing zoning and the Polk County Comprehensive Plan.
