The purpose of this zoning district is to encourage, support
and provide for a wide range of professional, corporate, and high-tech
employment opportunities located in close proximity to the residents,
utilities, and services in order to help maintain and enhance the
economic well-being of West Manheim Township. This district concentrates
future businesses and industries in areas where services and utilities,
including sewer, water, electricity, cable, highways, police and fire-protection
service currently exist or in areas where the reasonable and economical
future extension of utilities is planned and can be readily accommodated,
while minimizing the need for highway improvements. This district
also requires new business and industry to locate in smaller buildings
within larger office complexes on campus-like settings and offers
amenities to employees and local residents in and around the complexes
such as large expanses of open space, landscaped buffering, pedestrian
trails, as well as providing mass transit opportunities.
