AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF AUBURN,
WASHINGTON, AMENDING CHAPTERS 18.32 AND
18.34 OF THE AUBURN CITY CODE, RELATING TO
INDUSTRIAL ZONES
WHEREAS, from time to time, amendments to the City of Auburn zoning
code are appropriate, in order to update and better reflect the current
development needs and standards of the City; and
WHEREAS, a need has been identified to address concerns over the
changing face of industrial and commercial development; and
WHEREAS, presently, the City's principal industrial zones (M1 (Light
Industrial) and M2 (Heavy Industrial)) allow various manufacturing and wholesale
distribution use outright, while commercial uses allowed within these zones are
limited to those that complement or support industrial uses and typically require
an administrative use permit or a conditional use permit; and
WHEREAS, expanding the range of permitted commercial uses in the
industrial zones, as well as eliminating the administrative and discretionary land
use approval processes currently required to allow commercial uses, will promote
the more efficient use of land in the urban growth area; and
WHEREAS, with this code amendment, property owners would be offered
the ability to develop commercial uses without limiting the range of industrial
uses that are currently allowed; and
WHEREAS, following proper public notice, the City of Auburn Planning
Commission held a public hearing on June 6, 2006, on proposed code
amendments regarding uses and development standards in the M1 (Light
Industrial) and M2 (Heavy Industrial) zones; and

Commission recommendations; and
WHEREAS, environmental review on the proposal has been completed in
accordance with the requirements of the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA),
with a final determination of non-significance (DNS) issued May 22,2006; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the proposal was received by State

Section One AMENDMENT TO CITY CODE. That Chapter 18.32
of the Auburn City Code, entitled "M-1 Light Industrial District" is amended to
read as follows:
Chapter 18.32
M-1 LIGHT INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT
Sections:
18.32.010

18.32.010 Intent.
The purpose of the M-1 Light Industrial zone is to accommodate a variety of
industrial and commercial uses in an industrial park environment, to preserve land for
light industrial and commercial uses, to implement the economic goals of the
comprehensive plan and to provide a greater flexibility within the zoning regulations for
Ordinance No. 6033
July 05, 2006
Page 2 of 13
those uses which are nonnuisance in terms of air and water pollution, noise, vibration,
glare or odor. The light industrial/commercial character of this zone is intended to
address the way in which industrial and commercial uses are carried out rather than the
actual types of products made.
The light industrial character of this zone will limit the 3mount ~of industrial
primary activities and other uses which may be conducted outside of enclosed buildings
to outdoor displays and sales. Uses which are not customarily conducted indoors, or
involve hazardous materials are considered heavy industrial uses under this title and are
not appropriate for the M-1 zone.
'Nhile the majority of the M 1 zone is intended for light industri31 uses there may
be some commercial uses permitted if the use enhances the quality of the 3rea and
does not disrupt the continuity of the industrial uses. Regional shopping centers and
GemmefGIaI-feBf~ also be permitted if they are found to be appropriate and
consistent with the comprehensive pl3n.
An essential aspect of this zone is the need to maintain a quality of development
that attracts rather than discourages further investment in light industrial and commercial
development. Consequently, site activities which could distract from the visual quality of
development of those areas, such as outdoor storage should be strictly regulated within
this zone. (Ord. 4910 S 1, 1996; Ord. 4229 S 2, 1987.)
18.32.020 Permitted uses.

The M-2 J:J.Heavy llndustrial zones are iL.intended to provide for general
manufacturing and processing and grouping of industrial enterprises which possess
common or similar characteristics and performance standards involving manufacturing,
assembling, fabrication and processing, bulk handling of products, large amounts of
storage and warehousing, outdoor storage, processing and other related uses that
cannot meet the development standards of the M-1 zone.
While other uses may be sited within this zone, permits for such uses should not
be issued if such uses will discourage use of adjacent sites for heavy industry, interrupt
the continuity of industrial sites, or produce traffic in conflict with the industrial uses.
