Loudoun County, VA · Loudoun County Zoning Ordinance
Industrial Park (IP) is an Industrial Zoning District of the Loudoun County Zoning Ordinance. Its permitted uses are set by the ordinance's own Principal Use Table and its dimensional standards by its Chapter 2 district table; both are cited on every line below. Figures are deliberately left out of this description so that it can never contradict a standard that carries a citation -- read the standards, not this paragraph, for numbers.
