  • A. Inclusion by reference . The Zone Map together with all legends, symbols, notations, references, zone boundaries, map symbols, and other information on the map have been adopted by the Board in compliance with State law (Government Code Sections 65800 et. seq.) and are hereby incorporated into this Zoning Ordinance by reference as though they were fully included here.

  • A. Purpose. Chapters 808.2 through 818.2 determine which land uses are allowed in each zone established by Section 806.2.010 (Zones Established), what permit, or approval is required to establish each use, and the basic development standards that apply to allowed land uses in each zone.

  • B. Permit requirements. Tables 2-2, 2-4, 2-6, and 2-8 within Chapters 808.2 through 819.2 provide for land uses that are:

– CHAPTER 808.2 AGRICULTURAL ZONES

808.2.010 – Purpose of Individual Agricultural Zones

The purposes of the individual agricultural zones and the manner in which they are applied are as follows.

A. AE (Exclusive Agricultural) Zone.

  1. The AE zone is intended to protect agricultural land and provide for those uses which are necessary and an integral part of an agricultural operation. This zone is intended to protect the general welfare of the agricultural community from encroachments of non-related agricultural uses.

  2. The AE zone shall be accompanied by an acreage designation which establishes the minimum size of parcels that may be created within the zone, including designations of 640, 320, 160, 80, 40, and 20 acres. The AE zone is consistent with the Agriculture, Irrigated Agriculture, and Westside/Eastside Rangeland land use designations of the General Plan.

  3. See Section 806.2.030.C for Obsolete and Deleted Zones regarding AE-5.

B. AL (Limited Agricultural) Zone.

  1. The AL zone is intended to protect the general welfare of the agricultural community by limiting intensive uses in agricultural areas which may be incompatible with other less intensive agricultural operations.

  2. The AL zone shall be accompanied by an acreage designation which establishes the minimum size of parcels that may be created within the zone, including designations of 640, 320, 160, 80, 40, and 20 acres. The AL zone is consistent with the Agriculture and Irrigated Agriculture land use designations of the General Plan. See Section 806.2.030.C for Obsolete and Deleted Zones.

  • C. A-1 (Agricultural) Zone. The A-1 zone is intended to provide for the development of those unincorporated parcels in the County which are not included in other zones. The A-1 zone is consistent with variable land use designations of the General Plan. See Section 806.2.030.C for Obsolete and deleted Zones.

  • D. A-2 (General Agricultural) Zone. The A-2 zone is intended to protect those parcels requiring more protection than the A-1 zone provides, which do not by their nature require an exclusive or limited agricultural zoning. The A-2 zone is consistent with variable land use designations of the General Plan. See Section 806.2.030.C for Obsolete and deleted Zones.

FRESNO COUNTY ORDINANCE CODE - DIVISION 6, ZONING ORDINANCE

Chapter 806.2

Zones Established, Zone Map Adopted

A. Allowed land uses.

  1. Table 2-2 indicates the uses allowed within each agricultural zone and the planning permit required to establish each use, in compliance with Article 5 (Land Use and Development Review Procedures).

  2. Agricultural uses represent the principal allowed use, and only those additional uses that are complementary to, and can exist in harmony with, the agricultural character of each zone may be allowed as accessory, conditionally permitted, and/or temporary uses.

  • B. Prohibited land uses. Any table cell with a “blank” means that the listed land use is prohibited in that specific zone. Excludes unclassified uses.

  • C. Unclassified uses. Certain specified land uses are allowed as unclassified uses through an Unclassified Conditional Use Permit (Chapter 842.5) or Unclassified Director’s Review and Approval (Chapter 846.5).

  • D. Land uses not listed. For land uses not listed in Table 2-2, the provisions of Section 802.1.020 (Rules of Interpretation) shall apply.

  • E. Site Plan Review required. All construction activities (e.g., additions, alterations, construction, reconstruction, or remodeling) shall require Site Plan Review approval in compliance with Chapter 854.5 (Site Plan Review).

  • F. Applicable regulations. Where the last column in the tables ("Specific Use Regulations") includes a Section number, the regulations in the referenced section apply to the use; however, provisions in other Sections of this Zoning Ordinance may also apply.

  • G. Compliance with Airport Land Use Policy Plan. All land uses specified as “P” (Permitted use) in the following land use tables that are located on sites within an approach zone of an airport safety zone shall require a Director’s Review and Approval to ensure compliance with the County’s Airport Land Use Commission’s Airport Land Use Policy Plans, as administered by the Fresno Council of Governments.

808.2.030 – Williamson Act Contracts and Specified Agricultural Zones

A. Minimum Parcel Size for Lands Under Contract.

  1. Properties under Contract shall be subject to the County of Fresno’s Interim Guidelines which include a parcel size minimum of 20 acres for prime farmland and 40 acres for non-prime farmland.

The purposes of the individual residential zones and the manner in which they are applied are as follows.

  • A. R-A (Single Family Residential Agricultural) Zone. The R-A zone identifies areas appropriate for lower density development and small-scale agricultural uses, with not more than one primary dwelling unit per parcel. The R-A zone is consistent with the Low-Density Residential land use designation of the General Plan; see Section 806.2.030.C for Obsolete and Deleted Zones.

  • B. R-R (Rural Residential) Zone. The R-R zone identifies areas appropriate for large lot single-family uses, including limited agricultural activities (e.g., greenhouses, fruit and nut trees, and vines), within a semi-rural environment, with not more than one primary dwelling unit per parcel. The R-R zone is consistent with the Rural Residential, Foothill Rural Residential, and Mountain Urban land use designations of the General Plan.

  • C. R-1-A, R-1-AH (Single Family, Low Density Residential) Zones. The R-1-A and R-1-AH zones identify areas appropriate for large lot single-family uses with urban standards, with not more than one primary dwelling unit per parcel. The R-1-A and R-1-AH zones are consistent with the Low-Density Residential land use designation of the General Plan;

  • D. R-1-B (Single Family, Low Density Residential) Zone. The R-1-B zone identifies areas appropriate for large lot single-family uses with urban standards, with not more than one primary dwelling unit per parcel. The R-1-B zone is consistent with the Low-Density Residential land use designation of the General Plan.

  • E. R-1-C (Single-Family Residential Medium Density) Zone. The R-1-C zone identifies areas appropriate for conventional single-family uses, with not more than one primary dwelling unit per parcel, unless within a planned development. The R-1-C zone is consistent with the Medium Density Residential land use designation of the General Plan.

  • F. R-1-E, R-1-EH (Single-Family Residential Low Density) Zones. The R-1-E and R-1-EH zones identify areas appropriate for single-family residential estate uses, with not more than one primary dwelling unit per parcel. The standards for both zones are identical except that horses are an allowed use in the R-1-EH zone. The R-1-E and R-1-EH zones are consistent with the Low-Density Residential land use designation of the General Plan.

  • G. R-1 (Single-Family Residential Medium Density) Zone. The R-1 zone identifies areas appropriate for conventional single-family uses, with not more than one primary dwelling unit per parcel, unless within a planned development.

  • H. R-2, R-2-A (Multi-Family Low Density) Zones. The R-2 and R-2-A zones identify areas appropriate for low density multi-family residential uses, in order to provide for light, privacy, air, safety, and insulation against transmission of sound. The R-2 and R-2-A zones are consistent with the Medium-High Density Residential land use designation of the General Plan.

  • I. R-3, R-3-A (Multi-Family Medium Density) Zones. The R-3 and R-3-A zones identify areas appropriate for medium density multi-family residential uses. The standards for both zones are identical except that structure heights are limited to a single story in the R-3-A zone. The R-3 and R-3-A zones are consistent with the Medium-High Density Residential land use designation of the General Plan.

  • J. R-4 (Multi-Family High Density) Zone. The R-4 zone identifies areas appropriate for high density multi-family residential uses.
