The intent of the developing resource district (DR) is to provide for the annexation of those areas that are presently used for agriculture or other nonurban uses that are adjacent to the city limits of Lafayette. These areas are designated in the comprehensive plan as potentially suitable for urban development, but not in the immediate future because of lack of utilities, other services, or other needs.

No uses other than those existing at the time of annexation, or permitted by section 26-12-2 shall be permitted on property zoned DR unless the property is rezoned to a zoning district that permits the proposed use. Such rezoning shall be in accordance with Section 26-30.

(Ord. No. 1986-01, § 2, 2-4-86)

Property not receiving municipal water and/or sewer service that is annexed and zoned DR (developing resource) shall not be subject to requirements for park dedication or cash payment in lieu of dedicating park land or for water rights fees or requirements or any other fees except for the annexation costs and fees, unless municipal utilities are to be extended to the property, until such time that the property is zoned for development. The requirements for park dedication and water rights or other fees and requirements shall be met before rezoning from DR is completed. There shall be a signed agreement at the time of annexation to comply with all city requirements for dedication. Any fee changes or dedication requirements imposed generally after annexation of the lot or tract shall be applied to the lot or tract zoned DR at the time of rezoning.
