What are some land uses where the state has preempted local zoning control?

There are a variety of examples where state law has β€œpreempted” complete local zoning control by townships. These include, but are not limited to, certain transmission lines, cell towers and β€œsmall cell” deployments, oil and gas wells, and mineral extraction operations (mining). See e.g., MCL 125.3205.
