traffic and other objectionable influences and to prevent fire, explosion, radiation and other
hazards incidental to certain industrial activities;
To promote sufficient open space around industrial structures to protect them from hazard and to
minimize the impact of industrial operations on nearby residential or commercial districts; and
To minimize traffic congestion and avoid overloading utilities by restricting construction of
buildings of excessive size in relation to the amount ofland around them.
