Distribution: The process of supplying, at a regular interval, a certain commitment or commitments to various points. Not to include transfer stations; whose function is storage of goods for economi- cally profitable transport when there is sufficient volume. Planned Industrial District: Planned industrial development shall mean an area of land, controlled by a single land owner, to be devel- oped as a single entity primarily for light industrial and related uses, the plan for which does not correspond in lot size, bulk or type of dwelling, density, lot coverage or required open space to the regulations of any one industrial district established by any other sections of this Zoning Ordinance. The term "PID" as herein- after stated in this Ordinance shall be the same as Planned Indus- trial Development. Stage: A stage is a delineated geographic portion of the total project in which construction is programmed according to the develop- ment schedule.
