Sec. 20.132.005 - Intent.

This district is intended to allow the density in the zoning to be compatible with the General Plan density and to allow for decreased density in the zoning expressed in multiples of the density allowed in the corresponding General Plan designation (i.e., General Plan AG-40; zoning AG, AG:L-80, AG:L-120, etc.). Where such decreased density is desirable for the protection of existing land uses or environmental values, or for the recognition of constraints upon development, the "L" combining district shall be applied.
