Dear Carlos:

Rer M=3 Clean Industrisl Zone
Our File Ne. 19-8~109

Further to your memorandun yesterday, we have considered whether
ths proposed dafinition of "light industrial" to be added to
Section 101 of "port Coquitlam Zoning Bylaw, 1987, No. 2240" igs
enforceable.

In our view the definition can bea interpreted and applied by a
court, and a yrestriction to "light industrial" use will be
enforceable provided some discration is exercised in the
circumstances in which enforcement is sought. A recommended change
to the wording of the proposed definition is set out in the last
paragraph of this letter.

The proposed definition is as follows:

"Light Industrial Use means an industrial use taking place
entirely within a building and that produces no noise, smoke,
Smell, toxic fumes, vibration and/or electrical or electronic
interference that may in any way reduce the habitability of
surrounding residential areas.

"Industrial use" is already defined in Section 101 of tha Zoning
Bylaw so the basic elements of a light industrial use ara in placa.
The requirement that the use take place entirely within a building,
although a condition of use-rather than a parmitted use per se, is
also clear and enforceable.
