CHAPTER 18
39 EMERGENCY SHELTERS OVERLAY ZONE
§ 18.39.010 Establishment.
There is hereby established a zone which shall hereinafter be known as the "E-S emergency shelter overlay zone," and which shall function and serve as set out in this chapter.
(Ord. 1083 § 9, 2014)
§ 18.39.020 Intent and purpose.
The intent and purpose of the E-S zone is to principally designate, classify, and distinguish certain areas within the city that may best facilitate the development and use of emergency shelters.
(Ord. 1083 § 9, 2014)
§ 18.39.030 Applicability-Criteria.
A.
The E-S zone is a land use classification which, in part, assists in the implementation of the land use and housing elements of the general plan. It is a zone classification designed to be applied on selective areas of the community where an emergency shelter can be located and served by accessible public transportation, job centers, and public and community services.
B.
Application of the E-S zone must be clearly defined within the scope and purpose of qualifying land for an emergency shelter, and should account for environmental constraints, such as flooding, seismic hazards, chemical contamination, slope instability or erosion that could make building an emergency shelter infeasible.
C.
Uses of land which do not qualify and which are not specifically permitted in the E-S zone are hereby expressly prohibited.
(Ord. 1083 § 9, 2014)
§ 18.39.040 Permitted uses.
Regulations governing permitted uses of land in the E-S zone are specifically set forth in Chapter 18.40 of this title.
(Ord. 1083 § 9, 2014)
§ 18.39.050 Property development conditions.
Regulations governing the development of property in the E-S zone are specifically set forth in Chapter 18.40 of this title.
