Chapter 17.67 — DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT ZONE LAYOVER
Bellflower Zoning Code · 2026-06 edition · updated 2026-07-25 · Bellflower
§ 17.67.010. Purpose. ¶
A. The purpose of the Development Agreement Zone Layover(DAZL) is used to identify sites and areas within the City that are subject to the requirements of adopted development agreements in compliance with this Code.
B. The DAZL constitutes a "floating zone" in that once a need is identified, this zone can be activated. This floating zone for the DAZL area provides flexibility for otherwise strict development or sign regulations that would otherwise be applicable to the underlying zone.
C. In effect, this zone is not a true "floating zone" in that it does not add more regulations to an underlying zone. Rather, it is a "holding zone" which can be activated and used in place of the underlying zone when combined with a development agreement adopted by the City Council in accordance with applicable law including this Code.
(Ord. 1394 § 5, 8/10/20)
§ 17.67.020. General Requirements. ¶
A. Underlying Zones. The DAZL may be combined with any zone established by this Code.
B. Allowed Land Uses. The land uses that may be allowed on a site within the DAZL are limited to those specified in the applicable Development Agreement.
C. Permit Requirements. The land use permit requirements of the primary zoning district apply to all proposed development and land uses within the DAZL, except as otherwise provided by the terms of the applicable development agreement.
D. Development and Land Use Standards. Proposed development and land uses within the DAZL must comply with all applicable development and land use standards and exaction requirements specified in the development agreement and, to the extent that they are not in conflict with the terms of the development agreement, regulations that govern the primary zoning district apply to the site.
E. Zoning Map Notation. Upon the effective date of an ordinance placing a property in the DAZL, the Zoning Map will be amended to show the overlay designation. After execution by all parties, the development agreement will be added to the City's Development Agreement Master List with the effective date and expiration date of the development agreement noted. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of a development agreement, the Director will remove the development agreement from the City's Development Agreement Master List. The DAZL may be removed from the property by way of a Zone Map Amendment.
F. Approval of the DAZL and any development agreement associated with the DAZL rests solely within the City Council's discretion.
