Humboldt County Zoning Code · 2026-07 edition · updated 2026-07-09 · Humboldt County
32.1.1 Purpose. The Qualified Combining Zone Regulations are intended to be combined with principal zones to help more precisely implement the adopted County General Plan. (Former Section CZ#A313-42(A))
32.1.2 Applicability. The Board of Supervisors, in approving a zone reclassification as allowed by Chapter 2 of this division, may combine the Qualified Combining Zone with any principal zone. In combining the Qualified Combining Zone with any principal zone, the Board of Supervisors may delete principally permitted uses, conditionally permitted uses, uses permitted with a Special Permit, or accessory uses. The Board of Supervisors may also require Use Permits for principal permitted uses, uses permitted with a Special Permit, or accessory uses. Zone reclassifications to implement the Qualified Combining Zone are subject to making all of the required findings in Chapter 2 of this division. (Former Section CZ#A313-42(B))
32.1.3 Map Designation. When combined with a principal zone, the Qualified Combining Zone shall be represented on the adopted zoning maps by the Q designator. The Q designator shall immediately follow the Principal Zone designator and the maximum density designator, if applied; or the S designator, if applied. For example: RM-Q, RM-5-Q, RM-5-S-Q. Reference to the specific requirements of any “Q”/“Qualified” Zone is contained on the zoning maps, and the requirements are set forth in the specific ordinances which create each “Q” Zone.
