nature of industrial uses warrants the need for additional opportunities
for outdoor storage and/or parking of vehicles. As such, certain industrial
properties across the Town may be regulated using an industrial transitional
zone to increase opportunities for economic development without causing
significant negative impacts on adjoining properties. This district
is designed for a wide range of industrial and related activities
