Alternate Typologies | ARTICLE 7 Div. 7A.1. (Orientation)

City of Los Angeles Zoning Code Chapter 1A

Alternate Typology names are composed of two components: a typology category and a variation

number.

A. Typology Category

The first component of each Alternate Typology name is a typology category. Typology categories

group all typologies with similar allowed uses, characteristics, and intent. Typology categories are

organized as follows:

1. Civic Institution

2. Corner Store

3. Small Lot Subdivision

4. Drive-Through

5. Fueling Station

6. Opportunity Corridors

7. Corridor Transitions

B. Variation Number

The last component of each Alternate Typology name is a variation number. Alternate Typologies

are numbered based on the order in which they were incorporated into this Zoning Code (Chapter

1A).
