Nevada City Municipal Code Art. IX X Excluding Subdivision Combining District

The X Excluding Subdivision combining district is intended to prohibit further division of the lands where the combining district is shown on the Zone District Map. The purpose of the district is to provide a method of mitigating the impacts of current projects by allowing the city to permanently freeze parcel sizes. As an example, a planned development project might cluster development or lots on one portion of a large parcel while leaving the remaining area of the parcel as open space. By applying the "-X" combining district to the open space parcel, future additional divisions of the property can be avoided.

(Ord. 87-2 § 5.10-01, 1987)

In order to protect the integrity and intent of the district, no rezoning of property designated with the "-X" combining district shall be made to allow a division of the property until a finding is first made by the planning commission and city council that the rezoning would be in the public's interests.
