(B) R-2 zone.

(1) R-2 density. There shall be at least 3,500 square feet of lot area for each dwelling unit.

SEC. 16-160. PURPOSE AND INTENT.

The following are descriptions of the purpose and intent of each one of the industrial zoning districts in the city. All permitted and conditionally permitted uses shall be consistent with the purpose and intent of the respective zone.

(A) C-M (Commercial Manufacturing Zone). The purpose of the C-M Zone is to provide a zone for selected commercial retail sales and services, light manufacturing, warehousing, distributing, storage, and wholesale activities that are conducted totally within a building and with development standards suitable for commercial and limited industrial districts. This zone district also allows for permanent and temporary emergency shelters and emergency shelters for families, supportive and transitional housing, and farmworker housing pursuant to statutory requirements, and provides an appropriate transition from residential areas to more intense industrial activities.

(B) BRP (Business and Research Park Zone). The purpose of the BRP Zone is to provide areas for a limited group of professional, administrative, and research, and limited manufacturing uses along with limited commercial activities intended to support such uses. Such uses shall be oriented toward major transportation elements such as freeways, airports, and harbors, and shall be developed to specific property and development design standards.

(C) M-L (Limited Manufacturing Zone). The purpose of the M-L Zone is to provide areas suitable for the development and protection of restricted manufacturing uses and activities involving a high level of performance and site development. Uses may include administrative, wholesaling, warehousing, and manufacturing activities, and scientific research offices and laboratories, including certain accessory facilities necessary to serve the employees of such uses located in the zone. The development and performance standards of this division will enhance views from major transportation routes and assure a high-quality environment compatible with surrounding and abutting residential zones. This zone district also allows for permanent and temporary emergency shelters and emergency shelters for families to provide housing pursuant to statutory requirements, and for adult businesses.

(1) Manufacturing uses shall be limited to the fabrication, assembly, compounding, processing, or packaging of materials in a processed form that do not, in their maintenance, assembly, or packaging, create obnoxious or offensive smoke, gas, odor, dust, sound, vibration, soot, or lighting.

(2) In order to avoid reduction of the city's industrial base and to protect industrial land and improvements from encroaching upon incompatible uses or uses more properly suited to other districts, residential and commercial uses, except as provided herein, are not permitted in the Limited Manufacturing Zone.

(D) M-1 (Light Manufacturing Zone). The purpose of the M-1 Zone is to provide areas for manufacturing and related service uses and activities where the principal activity occurs within a building, but also permits outdoor assembly, fabrication, public services, and storage that conform to the development and performance standards of this chapter, and provide areas suitable for adult businesses. Industrial uses in this zone shall be limited to those that conduct fabrication, assembly, or land processing of materials (including agricultural produce) primarily within a building. The development and performance standards of this chapter limit the creation of smoke, gas, odor, dust, sound, and vibration that might be detrimental to health, safety, and welfare to protect any adjoining uses. Wholesale and retail sales and services related to principal uses are permitted. Limited outdoor storage associated with a primary use may be permitted.

(E) M-2 (Heavy Manufacturing Zone). The purpose of the M-2 Zone is to provide areas for industrial uses that are primarily outdoor and/or within specialized structures that may involve general manufacturing, processing, and/or fabrication activities, including outdoor storage and manufacturing, that are specifically excluded from other industrial zones and which do not require highly restrictive performance and development standards in regard to adjoining uses.

(Ord. No. 2958, 2985)

SEC. 16-270. PURPOSE.

(A) The purpose of this division is to authorize the designation of any of the basic zones established by this code as planned development zones by adding the letters “P-D” thereto. The P-D designation is intended to insure the orderly development of land in conformance with the general plan of the city and to permit departures from the restrictions imposed within the basic zones as specified in this chapter where justified by one or more of the following circumstances:

(1) When development is proposed in an area that the general plan has phased for development at a later time;

(2) When development is proposed in an area subject to a redevelopment plan;

(3) When development is proposed adjacent to or near public parks, public buildings or similar areas;

(4) When disparities between adjacent zones require protection of the more restricted zone;

(5) When development is proposed that does not conform to the standards of the basic zone, but offers advantages if properly conditioned to protect nearby uses. Such development includes but is not limited to:

(a) Commercial development near residential development;

(b) Multiple-family development near single-family development;

(d) When development is proposed near areas of public interest, such as areas of natural beauty, natural resources or historical interest, and public parks, civic centers and monuments;

(e) When development of a planned residential group is proposed.

(B) Another purpose of this division is to ensure that development occurs in substantial conformance with plans or uses in connection with an application for rezoning.

SEC. 16-271. MODIFICATION OF REQUIREMENTS OF BASIC ZONE.

(A) A special use permit shall be required for approval of any new development, enlargement or rebuilding of a structure or new use, license or certificate of compliance in any P-D zone.

(B) All requirements that apply in the basic zone to which the P-D designation is attached shall apply in the P-D zone, but such requirements may be modified by conditions imposed on the special use permit. Such conditions shall be designed to enhance the public welfare. Such conditions that concern numerical standards shall not increase or decrease by more than 25 percent the requirements that apply in the basic zone.

(C) If the basic zone to which the P-D designation is attached does not have requirements or standards, standards shall be set as shown on the development plan approved with the special use permit. Conditions as outlined in subsection (D) below may also be applied.

(D) Such conditions include, but are not limited to:

(1) If a P-D designation is requested on a development application, conditions requiring that development substantially conform to the plans or uses proposed in connection with the application for zoning or rezoning;

(2) Conditions to reduce or eliminate obnoxious characteristics of the development, such as noise, light, glare, smoke and odor;

(3) Conditions to provide sufficient off-street parking and loading spaces not required in the basic zone; to provide parking areas, access and traffic circulation patterns designed to segregate pedestrians from vehicles, prevent traffic congestion within the parcel or on nearby streets and protect the privacy of abutting uses and residential streets; to reduce the number of parking spaces required in the basic zone if such requirements are demonstrated to be excessive, as for housing for seniors; to require that off-street parking spaces be enclosed; and to waive carports and garages if parking spaces are not visible from the street or other public right-of-way;

(4) Conditions increasing or reducing the height of development, including fences; increasing or decreasing the number of dwelling units; increasing or decreasing landscaping; increasing or decreasing projections into required yard areas; increasing or decreasing sign sizes; increasing or decreasing minimum lot sizes and setbacks; and requiring design and architectural elements that reduce conflicts between the development and nearby property.
