Ordinance 4507-26 - Warehouse/light industrial regulation in the B-I zone
Description
A zoning text amendment making warehouses conditional uses in the B-I zone with strict standards: within one road mile of I-287, at least 500 feet from residential zones, low-intensity only, and a data center ban.
Impact summary
Future warehouses in Franklin will be smaller, farther from homes, and funneled near the I-287 interchanges; existing warehouses become nonconforming uses.
