§ 1400-07. Zoning Designation System.  


Latest version.
  • Land use and development regulations applicable to specific sites are shown on the Zoning Map by zoning designations consisting of classes of letter designators:

    (a)

    Land Use Regulations Designator. This designator indicates the principal land uses permitted or conditionally permitted in each district and is a component of all zoning designations, for example, SF Single-family Residential District, RM Residential Multi-family District or CN Commercial Neighborhood District.

    (b)

    Residential Density Designator. This designator indicates a subdistrict with a specific range of dwelling unit densities as a component of certain residential zoning designations, for example, SF-20 Single-family Residential District is the lowest density range, which requires 20,000 square feet for every dwelling unit. RM-2.0 requires 2,000 square feet for every dwelling unit.

    (c)

    Subarea Designation. Within the DD Downtown Development District, subdistricts are designated by letters (A, B, C or D) following the zoning district designation. Similarly, in the commercial districts, subarea designations are used for Pedestrian (P), Mixed (M), and Automobile Oriented (A).

    (d)

    Special Review District Designators. These designators are included in a zoning designation if the provisions of one or more districts are applicable to a site or area. For example, HS indicates that the property is within a Hillside District.
