20.45 D District

Combining

20.45.10 Intent

The intent of this chapter is to create a district which, when combined with a basic zoning district, will not allow further land division of lots created by a subdivision. This in turn will allow cluster-type developments, and/or varied lot sizes which would best utilize unique site situations yet remain consistent with density and use requirements of the county general plan or adopted specific plan.

(Ord. 82-09 § 2 Exh A(8) (part), 1982: Ord. 79-036 (part), 1979)

20.45.20 Applications

This D district may be combined with an A, PO, RR or R zoning district. The regulations set forth in this chapter shall apply in lieu of the respective regulations specified for the subject district with regards to minimum lot sizes.

(Ord. 89-08 § 1, 1989: Ord. 82-09 § 2 Exh. A(8) (part), 1982: Ord. 79-036 (part), 1979)

20.45.30 Restrictions

  1. The D combining district may only be utilized on subdivision projects when because of terrain, site characteristics or overall project design, varying lot sizes or cluster development with mitigating open areas are more desirable than standard, uniform lot sizes.
  2. The overall project density shall not exceed the general plan density requirement for the project site.
  3. The building site area required for each lot shall be shown on the final subdivision map. No further land divisions shall be permitted unless a rezone is granted and the land division is consistent with the general plan or adopted specific plan density requirement for the total original project site.
  4. A resolution of intention to rezone to the D combining district may be adopted at the time of approval of the tentative map, however, the rezone shall not be in effect until the final subdivision or parcels map has been recorded with the county clerk.
