Lomita Municipal Code Art. 60 Development Standards

The specific and detailed development standards included in this chapter are supplementary provisions intended to provide clarification and amplification of the provisions and standards governing development in each zone.

The development standards contained in this chapter shall govern all the uses, buildings and structures in every zone; and except as otherwise provided in this chapter, no building, structure or use may hereafter be constructed, established, altered, enlarged, moved onto, operated, occupied or maintained on a lot or parcel of land unless such building, structure or use conforms to the standards of development for the zone in which it is located.

All physical facilities required in this chapter, such as buildings and structures, paving, fences, walls and landscaping, shall be kept and maintained in a neat, clean, orderly, operable and usable condition.

(1) Noise or Sound: Any existing or proposed use, or portions thereof, generating sounds that constitute a nuisance or hazard on any adjacent property due to the intermittence, beat frequency or shrillness of the sounds shall have the source of the noise or sound muffled or controlled in such manner as will prevent the issuance, continuance or recurrence of the disturbance. Construction work shall be exempt from this requirement during the period of construction while a valid building permit is in force, but shall be subject to the noise ordinance of the city's municipal code.

(2) Neither the provisions of this chapter nor the granting of any permit provided for in this chapter authorizes or legalizes the maintenance of any public or private nuisance.

(Ord. No. 498, § 2, 7-20-92)

The City intends to regulate on equal terms all similar land uses that generate the same potential impacts. The development standards in this Chapter shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with this intent.
