A.

Title and Intent. The provisions of this Chapter shall be known as the RM Mixed Housing Type Residential Zones Regulations. The intent of the Mixed Housing Type Residential (RM) Zones is to create, maintain, and enhance residential areas typically located near the City's major arterials and characterized by a mix of single-family homes, townhouses, small multi-unit buildings, and neighborhood businesses where appropriate.

B.

Description of Primary Zones. This Chapter establishes land use regulations for the following four (4) primary zones:

1.

RM-1 Mixed Housing Type Residential - 1 Zone. The intent of the RM-1 Zone is to create, maintain, and enhance residential areas characterized by a mix of single family homes and duplexes, and neighborhood businesses where appropriate.

2.

RM-2 Mixed Housing Type Residential - 2 Zone. The intent of the RM-2 Zone is to create, maintain, and enhance residential areas characterized by a mix of single family homes, duplexes, townhouses, small multi-unit buildings, and neighborhood businesses where appropriate.

3.

RM-3 Mixed Housing Type Residential - 3 Zone. The intent of the RM-3 Zone is to create, maintain, and enhance residential areas characterized by a mix of single family homes, duplexes, townhouses, small multi-unit buildings at somewhat higher densities than in RM-2, and neighborhood businesses where appropriate.

4.

RM-4 Mixed Housing Type Residential - 4 Zone. The intent of the RM-4 Zone is to create, maintain, and enhance residential areas typically located on or near the City's major arterials and characterized by a mix of single family homes, townhouses, small multi-unit buildings at somewhat higher densities than RM-3, and neighborhood businesses where appropriate.

C.

Description of Combining Zone. This Chapter establishes land use regulations for the following combining zone:

1.

C Residential Commercial Combining Zone. The intent of the C Combining Zone is to allow for expanded commercial uses, as well as new commercial uses within certain areas of the Mixed Housing Type Residential (RM) Zones. When an above primary zone is combined with the C Combining Zone, the C Residential Commercial Combining Zone permitted uses supersede those of the primary zone.

L11. Extensive Agriculture is only permitted upon the granting of a Conditional Use Permit (see Chapter 17.134 for the CUP procedure). In addition to the criteria contained in Section 17.134.050, this activity must meet the following use permit criteria:

a. The proposal will not adversely affect the livability or appropriate development of abutting properties and the surrounding neighborhood in terms of noise, water and pesticide runoff, farming equipment operation, hours of operation, odor, security, and vehicular traffic.

L12. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Planning Code, a Major Conditional Use Permit is required if these activities are to be located in the residentially zoned areas between 53rd Street, 55th Street, Martin Luther King Jr. Way, and Highway 24 (see Chapter 17.134 for the CUP procedure).

In the case of a corner lot, or lot that has one or more vacant parcels next to it, this same principal shall apply if the nearest non-vacant lot to each side of a corner lots, or to each side of a lot that has one or more vacant parcels next to it, have less than the minimum front setback required in this Chapter (see Illustration for Table 17.17.03 [Additional Regulation 4], below). Also, see Section 17.108.130 for allowed projections into setbacks.

However, such side setback shall only apply to the rear ten (10) feet of the corner lot, and not be required to exceed four (4) feet in width if it would reduce to less than twenty-five (25) feet the buildable width of any corner lot. Such setback shall be provided unobstructed except for the accessory structures or the other facilities allowed therein by Section 17.108.130. This regulation does not apply to lots within the C Combining Zone (see Illustration for Table 17.17.03 [Additional Regulation 10], below). See also Subsection 17.110.040.C for special controls on location of detached accessory buildings on such corner lots.

Illustration Table 17.17.03 [Additional Regulation 10]
*for illustration purposes only

11. Wherever a rear lot line abuts an alley, one-half (½) of the right-of-way width of the alley may be counted toward the required minimum rear setback; provided, however, that the portion of the minimum rear setback depth actually on the lot itself shall not be reduced to less than ten (10) feet. Also, see Section 17.108.130 for allowed projections into setbacks.

12. See Section 17.108.030 for allowed projections above height limits and Section 17.108.020 for increased height limits in certain situations.

All usable open space shall meet the standards contained in Chapter 17.126.

17. This regulation does not apply in the C Combining Zone.

18. See Section 17.103.085 for setback and separation requirements for Vehicular Residential Facilities.

19. Maximum Lot Coverage and maximum Floor Area Ratio (FAR) only apply to lots with one to two dwelling units, excluding any permitted Accessory Dwelling Units. See Table 17.17.05 for applicable regulations.

20. This height is only required for new principal buildings that include ground floor Nonresidential Facilities, and is measured from the sidewalk grade to the second story floor. If the Nonresidential Facility is to be located to the front of a Potentially Designated Historic Property (PDHP) or Designated Historic Property (DHP), this height shall also be the maximum allowed for a Nonresidential Facility in the area between the front property line and the front building elevation of the existing historic structure.

21. For developments involving the creation of new units on two or more adjoining parcels under the same ownership, there is no minimum interior side setback required between those new units.

B.

Reduced Setbacks for Smaller Lots. Table 17.17.04 below prescribes reduced setback standards for lots less than three thousand (3,000) square feet. The number designations in the "Additional Regulations" column refer to the regulations listed at the end of the Table.

b. New Nonresidential Commercial Facilities associated with a Potential Designated Historic Property (PDHP) or Designated Historic Property (DHP), but only if there is an existing context within the adjoining block face of no front and/or side yard setback. For the purposes of this limitation, an "existing context" of no front or side yard setback means that at least sixty percent (60%) of the existing buildings from street corner to street corner on the same side of the street have no front or side yard setback. If the Commercial Facility is to be located to the front of a PDHP or DHP, the maximum height allowed for the portion of the Commercial Facility between the sidewalk and the existing structure shall be fifteen (15) feet.

A side yard of the normally required minimum width in Table 17.17.04 shall be required for new construction or addition along any side lot line abutting an interior side lot line of any lot that is not located in a C Combining Zone or Commercial Zone. (Where it abuts a rear lot line, no yard is required). Section 17.108.080 still applies. Also, see Section 17.106.010 for exceptions to lot development standard regulations and Section 17.108.130 for allowed projections into setbacks.

2. See Section 17.103.085 for setback and separation requirements for Vehicular Residential Facilities.

4. See Section 17.106.010 for exceptions to lot development standard regulations.

D.

Height. Table 17.17.06 below prescribes height standards associated with different sloped lots. The numbers in the "Additional Regulations" column refer to the regulations listed at the end of the Table. "N/A" designates the regulation is not applicable to the specified footprint slope category.

Table 17.17.06 Height Regulations for all Lots With a Footprint Slope of >20%

Additional Regulations for Table 17.17.06:

1. See Section 17.108.030 for allowed projections above height limits and Section 17.108.020 for increased height limits in certain situations.
