In M-1 districts, the allowed industries must meet specific requirements regarding enclosure, screening, and the minimum distance from Residential Districts. Dwelling units are conditionally permitted in this district.
The number of residential units in the M-1 district is calculated based on the size of the lot, but it cannot exceed 1 dwelling unit per lot.
Dwelling Unit: A room or suite of two or more rooms that is designed for, or is occupied by, one family doing its own cooking therein and having only one kitchen.
Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU): Also known as a Secondary Unit or In-Law Unit. It is accessory to at least one other Dwelling Unit on the same lot. A detached ADU should not share structural walls with the primary structure on the lot.
Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU): JADU is a secondary living space within a single-family home, limited to 500 square feet. It must have its own entrance, an efficiency kitchen, and can either share or have separate sanitation facilities. The property owner must live on-site unless a government agency, land trust, or housing organization owns the unit.
These districts are more suitable for smaller industries dependent upon truck transportation. In M-1 Districts, most industries are permitted, but some with particularly harmful characteristics are excluded. The permitted industries have certain requirements as to enclosure, screening, and minimum distance from Residential Districts.
The primary use of the Light Industrial zone is industrial. The Permitted uses listed below show that additional land uses may be allowed in this zone.

The height of a dwelling cannot exceed 65 feet.
Building height is measured from the centerline of the building. If the building steps laterally along a street, separate measurements are taken from the centerline of each step. For flat roofs, height is measured to the highest point of the finished roof, while for pitched or stepped roofs, it is measured to the average height of the rise.
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), also called secondary units, in-law units, or cottages, are units added to existing and new residential buildings. Adding an ADU to your property can provide several benefits, such as providing housing for family members, simplifying your lifestyle, and increased financial flexibility.Learn more about building ADUs
Redevelopment projects for the neighborhood became the dominant issue of the 1990s, 2000s and 2010s. Efforts include the Bayview Redevelopment Plan for Area B, which includes approximately 1300 acres of existing residential, commercial and industrial lands. This plan identifies seven economic activity nodes within the area. The former Navy Shipyard waterfront property is also the target of redevelopment to include residential, commercial, and recreational areas.
