What are the types of zones?
- General-purpose zones are usually located at ports or industrial parks. They must be opened to
multiple zone users. Although manufacturing is permitted within general-purpose zones, the most common
activity use is for warehouse and distribution activity.
- Subzones are special-purpose zones, usually at manufacturing plants. A subzone of a general-
purpose zone can be approved if the company is unable to relocate existing facilities into
a general-purpose zone site. Subzones are approved for use by one company for a specific activity.
Applications for subzone status must demonstrate a significant public benefit for approval.
