Industrial land uses are defined as development that is relatively free of
unwanted side effects, such as unsightliness, noise, odor, glare,
vibrations, etc., is permitted in the Industrial category. If meeting the
qualification of relatively free of unwanted side effects, suitable types of
development in the Industrial category can be characterized by the
manufacturing, processing, packaging, assembly, storage, warehousing
and/or distribution of products. Ancillary commercial and retail activities
associated with these uses are permitted. Public Parks / Open Space and
Public / Semi‐Public activities as described above may be permitted if
surrounding industrial uses do not pose hazards and are sufficiently
buffered.

TRANSPORTATION
ASSESSMENT: Mobility & Master Thoroughfare Plan
Access to the site will be through Mustang Court, which currently has a
single access point to SH 26. Mustang Court intersects with Southwestern
Boulevard.
Area Road and Network Conditions
Mustang Court is a local commercial road with two drive lanes and a
central turn lane. The road currently serves a mix of heavy and light
industrial uses.
