Chapter 21.06 — ZONING MAP

This zoning code, together with a zoning map, is hereby adopted in compliance with current state planning, zoning, and development laws. Changes in the boundaries of identified zoning districts shall be made by ordinance. The boundaries, designations, and locations, of the districts established by this zoning code shall be shown upon the map(s) entitled "Zoning Map for the City of Paso Robles" and referred to in this zoning code as the zoning map. Any additional maps (such as setback map, height map) adopted shall also be a part of this zoning code by reference.

(Ord. No. 1144 N.S., § 3(Exh. A), 10-1-2024)

Where a public street or alley is officially vacated, the property areas associated with the vacated street or alley shall be included within the zoning district or zoning districts of the adjoining properties. If the adjoining properties are in different zoning districts, the boundary lines shall be the centerline of the former street or alley and the extension of the side yard lines of the abutting properties. In the event such street, alley, or right-of-way was a boundary between two or more different zoning districts, the new zoning district or zoning district boundary shall be the property line that is created by the vacation.

(Ord. No. 1144 N.S., § 3(Exh. A), 10-1-2024)

Where the exact boundaries of a zoning district cannot be readily or exactly ascertained by reference to the zoning map of the city, the boundaries shall be deemed to be along the nearest street or lot line, as the case may be and as determined by the director. If a zoning district boundary line divides or splits a lot, the lot may be deemed to be included within the zoning district which is the more restrictive unless the major portion of the lot is in the less restrictive zoning district, then the latter may be deemed to be the zoning at the discretion of the planning commission. The provisions of this section shall not apply to acreage.

(Ord. No. 1144 N.S., § 3(Exh. A), 10-1-2024)

Any land within the incorporated limits of the city of Paso Robles, now or in the future, and not designated or indicated as any other zoning district on the zoning map shall be immediately zoned to be consistent with the general plan. In the interim period, between annexation and actual zoning of the property, the planning commission may grant use permits for uses conforming to the general plan. Conditions of the use permit shall include yard, height, lot area, and parking requirements of the zoning district most closely conforming to the general plan designation.

(Ord. No. 1144 N.S., § 3(Exh. A), 10-1-2024)
