Part IV, Subarea 16, Primary Function, shall read as follows: "This Subarea serves as a transition zone from more intensive industrial or commercial activities to residential areas in the southwest corner of the City. As such, new development must be sensitive to the surroundings with appropriate architecture and site planning to mitigate potential conflicts. Land uses within the inclustrial area should be compatible with surrounding uses north of Sixth Street and along Archibald Avenue to provide for use activities associated with airports such as tourist commercial. This subarea is located between Sixth Street and Fourth Street, west of Archibald Avenue and contains property substantially undeveloped. It lies adjacent to a direct access to the Ontario International Airport and is located at a gateway to the City." b. Part IV, Subarea 16, Permitted Uses, shall read as follows: "Administrative and Office Professional/Design Services Research Services Light Wholesale, Storage, and Distribution Building Maintenance Services Business Supply Retail Sales and Services Ordinance 565 Page 4 Business Support Services Communication Services Eating and Drinking Establishments Financial, Insurance and Real Estate Services Medical/Health Care Services Recreation Facilities Administrative Civic Services" c. Part IV, Subarea 16, Conditional Uses, shall read as follows: "Custom Manufacturing Light Manufacturing Automotive Rental/Leasing Automotive Service Station Convenience Sales and Services Entertainment Fast Food Sales Food and Beverage Sales Hotel/Motel Personal Services Cultural Public Assembly Public Safety and Utility Services Religious Assembly Uses listed ("permitted" or "conditionally permitted") in the Development Code's Neighborhood Commercial District subject to a 5-acre maximum and site constraints as listed in the Special Considerations." d. Part IV, Subarea 16, Special Considerations, second paragraph shall read as follows: "A revised conceptual Master Plan (revises the master plan of Development Review File Number 82-16) which outlines access,~ circulation, drainage and timing of improvements is required prior to approval of development plans. All new development must be consistent with this Master Plan, or the appropriate revisions approved. Neighborhood Commercial uses (listed as "permitted or "conditionally permitted" in the Development Code) may only be considered within a 5- acre area at or near the southwest corner of Archibald Avenue and Sixth Street subject to approval of a master plan for those uses within a larger industrial park project. In the event of a conflict between whether a use is permitted or conditionally permitted, the Industrial Park Ordinance 565 Page 5 requirement applies. It is not the intent to allow neighborhood commercial uses to be scattered throughout an industrial project nor to permit such uses within any existing complex designed solely for industrial uses." e. Part IV, Subarea 16, Special Considerations, fifth paragraph shall read as follows: "Attractive screening of outdoor work, loading, storage areas, and roof and ground mounted equipment from significant residential and public right-of-way freeway points of view shall be required." f.
