SUMMARY
This is a public hearing on the Industrial District Regulations Update involving Zoning Map and Text Amendments (Amendments) to the Hayward Municipal Code (HMC). The proposed Amendments would impact all land with Industrial Corridor and Mixed Industrial General Plan land use designations, and all properties that are zoned I (Industrial) District.
Proposed Amendments include development of industrial sub-districts with more appropriate land uses and the creation of development standards that are tailored to each sub-districts' purpose, including the establishment of development, design, and performance standards for all industrial development. The Amendments would: bring the City's Industrial District Zoning regulations into conformance with Industrial-related General Plan Goals and Policies to promote well-designed, amenity-rich industrial development for employees and visitors to the area; address and minimize compatibility issues between industrial and adjacent sensitive uses; and encourage establishment and expansion of advanced manufacturing and high employee generating uses and discourage low-employment intensity, high-impact uses.
