Sec. 30-376. - Live/work. — Fontana Zoning Code

Description: The live/work building type is a small to medium-sized attached or detached structure that consists of single dwelling unit above and/or behind a flexible ground floor space that can be used for home-business uses such as residential, personal and general service, or retail uses.
