9102.13.010 - Purpose and Intent.

The Specific Plan (SP) zone is established to implement Sections 65450 through 65457 of the California Government Code. As provided for in the Government Code, a Specific Plan is designed to provide for flexibility, innovative use of land resources and development, a variety of housing and other development types, and an effective and safe method of pedestrian and vehicular circulation. A Specific Plan may be adopted for any property or group of properties meeting the criteria set forth in this Division and Section 9107.21 (Specific Plans). The Specific Plan zone shall apply to all properties lying within the bounds of a specific plan that has been adopted by resolution or ordinance of the Council.

9102.13.020 - Effect of Specific Plan Zone.

Once adopted, a specific plan shall govern all use and development of properties within the bounds of that specific plan. Where a specific plan is silent with regard to particular development standards, the provisions of this Code shall govern. The Director shall have the authority to determine which provisions of this Code apply where a specific plan is silent.

9102.13.030 - Required Contents of a Specific Plan.

The required contents of a specific plan shall be as set forth in Government Code Section 65450 et seq.

9102.13.040 - Land Use and Development Standards.

Each adopted specific plan establishes the land use regulations and development standards applicable to the properties within the specific plan.
