a permitted use in the 'M -1t Light Industrial Zone,
and
"WHEREAS, upon investigation by staff and report

other uses presently permitted and allowed in the M -1
Zone, and
"WHEREAS, Ordinance No. 306, under Section 12A
as amended by Ordinance No. 348 provides that - --
' - -If any 'use+ is for any reason omitted from

tent of this ordinance, or if ambiguity exists with
reference to matters of height, yard requirements, or
area requirements as set forth herein and as they may
pertain to unforseen circumstances, it shall be the

pretation shall govern.'

chamber is not used, the building within which such
operations are conducted must be airtight.
"(b) In lieu of the dustproof chamber a bag house
can be utilized for large articles.
rr(c) All operations must be wholly contained with-
in an entirely enclosed building.
"(d) If Blastite (carborundum product containing
less than 2% silica) or a similar steel grit or carborun-
dum grit is used, d chamber will not be necessary.
rr(e) All installations shall comply with all regu-
lations of the (1) Division of Industrial Safety Orders,

cil, that all administrative officials in the City be ad-
vised of these findings and conclusions and be directed
