ML-a districts shall represent uses Which are more passive and less offensive in nature than ML-b uses . Communication 956 , which transmits Bill 332, states that "Currently, 'permitted uses within the Limited Industrial zoned properties range from a contractor 's baseyard to uses which have no measurable nuisance qualities beyond the property line. This range of permitted uses is, obviously, much too great. " Dividing the uses permitted in the Limited Industrial designation into two categories will correct this problem by limiting the .range of permitted uses . Planning Director Albert Lono Lyman informed the Committee that the Planning Department is also working on amendments to the Limited Industrial zoning designation. While their amendments will be similar to those being proposed in Bill 332, their proposal will include certain commercial uses as permitted uses within Limited Industrial zones . 205 PC REPORT No .
