PALMDALE Industrial HI Zoning. Easy access to Highway 14. This zone is intended to allow a range of medium to high intensity industrial uses such as manufacturing, assembly, warehousing, distribution, and the like, which provide employment and services for residents and businesses. Some of these uses, such as heavy manufacturing, may not be suitable adjacent to sensitive uses or housing, and should be physically separated from residential areas by natural or manmade barriers. This zone implements the Industrial General Plan land use designation.
