- ZONING DISTRICT PURPOSE STATEMENTS
(1)
Large Lot Residential (R1). This district is established for large-lot single-family residential housing. It is consistent with a very low density suburban environment and protected from incompatible uses. Housing is arranged in a conventional detached format and not to exceed a density of three (3) units per acre.
(2)
Suburban Residential (R2). This district is established for traditional residential suburban development in a medium density setting of three (3) to five (5) units per acre. This area is protected from incompatible uses with buffers of higher intensity residential development.
(3)
Medium Density Residential (R3). Same as above, but also permits placement of clustered patterns of housing. This district is intended for a moderately dense pattern of development of five (5) to seven (7) units per acre.
(4)
High Density Residential (R4). This district is intended to provide appropriate areas and standards for dense, single-family housing. Garden homes, townhomes, zero lot line construction, and placement of clustered patterns of housing are appropriate in this district, up to twelve (12) units per acre.
(5)
"Old Town" Residential (R-OT). This "old town" district is established for higher densities of single family housing. Future development should remain consistent with original character of subdivision to maintain historic integrity.
(6)
Multifamily Residential (R5). This district is established for the highest residential densities meant primarily for apartment housing and is an appropriate transition use between residential and nonresidential districts.
(7)
Manufactured Housing (MH1). This district is established for areas of relatively permanent, HUD-Code manufactured housing placed on individually owned lots.
(8)
Mobile Home Park (MH2). This district is established for trailer park areas, where multiple trailers are located on a common, large lot.
(Ord. No. 581, § 4.1, 1-22-07; Ord. No. 581-K-2017, § I, 4-4-17)
(1)
Neighborhood Services (C1). This district permits small scale, limited impact businesses which are meant to serve the retail and personal service needs of residents of adjacent and nearby neighborhoods. May also include professional, local government offices and services, and schools. No use that adversely affects the health, safety, welfare or residential character of the adjacent neighborhood is authorized. Intended to be of a scale compatible with the neighborhood it serves and located along a major collector road. C1 uses should have pedestrian access to adjacent residential areas, but are not appropriate along residential streets or residential collector streets.
(2)
Retail (C2). This district is intended for a wide range of retail trade uses, personal services, and some limited office and residential integration. Outdoor storage or nonenclosed sales are not intended in this commercial node. Use of special architectural treatments, such as towers, cupolas, multi-story buildings, awnings, patios, and similar are encouraged to provide visual identification of the node. It is primarily intended for use in high traffic areas adjacent to arterial streets and highways and is appropriate for relatively high volume commercial centers.
(3)
Commercial Services (C3). This district is intended to provide for a full range of commercial services which satisfy the needs of the entire community and its visitors. Permitted uses and building scale should blend with adjacent and nearby properties without causing visual or environmental impact.
(4)
General Commercial (C4). This district is intended for low intensity, limited impact uses, which may include office warehousing, wholesaling, product assembly, and light manufacturing conducted within the confines of the building. In addition, nonpolluting industries properly proportioned and designed for aesthetic appeal, with controlled design of plant exteriors and construction materials are also appropriate. Traffic generation will likely include heavy vehicles, making access to a minor or major arterial or a freeway necessary.
(5)
Highway Commercial (C5). This district is designated for high visibility retail use serving the needs of the surrounding region. It is generally situated along a highway or major roadway due to high traffic requirements and serves to build a node of activity within the city. This district is physically separated from residential areas buffered by a gradation of uses decreasing in intensity.
(6)
Open Space (OS). This district is designated to preserve areas that are not to be developed, due to Clear Zone, floodplain, or parkland use.
(Ord. No. 581, § 4.2, 1-22-07)
(1)
Planned Unit Development (PUD). Planned Unit Development (PUD) zoning is intended to allow flexibility in planning and designing for unique or environmentally sensitive properties that are to be developed in accordance with a common development scheme of planned associations of uses. PUD zoning is designed to accommodate various types of development, such as single-family residential, multiple housing development, neighborhood and community shopping centers, professional and administrative areas, industrial and business parks, and other uses or a combination or mix of uses. A PUD may be used to permit new or innovative concepts in land use and standards not permitted by zoning or subdivision standards in this chapter or to permit development projects that existing zoning districts do not easily accommodate.
(2)—(4)
Reserved.
(5)
Randolph Compatible Use Zone Overlay (*AICUZ). Properties located within the Randolph Compatible Use Zone Overlay are subject to the requirements of the Air Installation Compatible Use Zone for Randolph Air Force Base. This requirement specifies Clear Zones, in which no land use activity may take place, APZ I Zones, which enable limited industrial, commercial, recreation and open space use, and APZ II Zones, which permit all uses except Public/Quasi Public.
(Ord. No. 581, § 4.3, 1-22-07; Ord. No. 581-L-2017, § I, 10-4-17; Ord. No. 581-W-2021, § 1, 1-19-21)
