§ 14-315. General industrial (in MI District).

(a) When allowed.

General industrial uses are allowed in the MI District only if the use includes a deepwater component that requires waterside access to and from the property by vessels or barges in maritime trade. This deep water component may include other users whose core business has a maritime-related component.

(b) Maintenance of infrastructure and channels.

General industrial uses in the MI District must maintain, regardless of frequency or nature of use:

(1) the working condition of the piers, berths, bulkheads, and other existing maritime infrastructure under their control; and

(2) the water depth and condition of the deepwater channels throughout the associated riparian area.
