Mountain House Municipal Code Ch. 1 Other Zones: Intent and Organization

Division 7 constitutes the Other Zones. The purpose of this Division is to prescribe use, lot, and structure regulations for zones other than residential, commercial, or industrial zones within the City of Mountain House, consistent with the Community Development portion of the General Plan. The names and intents of the Other Zones are as follows:

(a) P-F Zone. The public facilities (P-F) zone is intended to provide for the establishment of schools meeting State requirements for primary, secondary and higher education; medical facilities; infrastructure facilities, such as the wastewater treatment plant and water treatment plant; police and fire protection facilities and other public buildings; the Transit Center; and places of religious assembly. This zone is intended to implement the public facilities land use category of the General Plan.

(b) M-X Zone. The mixed-use (M-X) zone is intended to provide an integration of land use types, including office, retail, recreation, public and residential uses, under a coherent plan; provide a central location for community activities, such as parades, exhibits, shows and other civic functions that serve to give identity and interest to the lifestyle of a community; and otherwise create a focal point of activity within the community. The M-X zone allows for more urban densities, innovative design, and a more efficient land and infrastructure utilization than would be permitted under other traditional designations. The concurrent filing of a Specific Plan shall be required of areas to be zoned Mixed-Use. This zone is intended to implement the mixed-use land use category of the General Plan.
