§ 82.06.040 Industrial and Special Purpose Land Use Zoning District Allowed Uses and…

(a) General Permit Requirements. Table 82-17 identifies the uses of land allowed by this Development Code in each Industrial and special purpose land use zoning district established by Chapter 82.01 (Land Use Plan, Land Use Zoning Districts, Overlays), in compliance with § 82.02.030 (Allowed Land Uses and Planning Permit Requirements). (b) Requirements for Certain Specific Land Uses. Where the last column in Table 82-17 (Specific Use Regulations) includes a Section number, the referenced Section may affect whether the use requires Site Plan Permit, or Conditional Use Permit or Minor Use Permit, Planned Development Permit, or other County approval, and/or may establish other requirements and standards applicable to the use. (c) Allowed Land Uses in the SD Land Use Zoning District. A special development may allow intermixing of residential, commercial and industrial uses, provided that the review authority determines that there is a specific need for the special development standards. The Special Development Land Use Zoning District may have a suffix to indicate the focus of a particular SD zone. A “RES” suffix indicates that the focus is on residential Planned Development projects. A “COM” suffix indicates that the focus is on commercial Planned Development projects. An “IND” suffix indicates that the focus is on industrial Planned Development projects. However, all can still have mixed uses within these zones.

§ 82.06.050 Industrial and Special Purpose Land Use Zoning District Subdivision Standards.

(a) Each subdivision shall comply with the minimum parcel size requirements shown in Tables 82-18A, 82-18B and 82-18C for the applicable land use zoning district. (b) The minimum parcel size requirements for a specific subdivision are determined by the review authority as part of subdivision approval. The review authority may require one or more parcels within a specific subdivision to be larger than the minimums required by these tables based on potential environmental impacts, the physical characteristics of the site or surrounding parcels, and/or other factors. (c) See also the standards in § 83.02.050 (Parcel Area Measurements and Exceptions).

(2) Except where modified by map suffix. (3) A suffix may be added to a Special Development Land Use Zoning District to emphasize the focus of a specific SD zone. A “RES” suffix would indicate that the focus of the zone is on residential development while still allowing commercial uses. A “COM” suffix would indicate that the focus of the zone is on commercial development while still allowing some residential uses. An “IND” suffix would indicate that the focus of the zone is on industrial development while still allowing other mixed uses. Also, a map suffix may allow minimum lot area to be less than 5 acres (e.g., SD-5 = Special Development with a five-acre minimum lot area). A map suffix may also indicate maximum dwelling units per acre (e.g., SD-3/1 = Special Development with a maximum density of three dwelling units per acre). (4) A Final Development Plan may approve lot sizes smaller than those specified by the land use zoning district. The combination of open spaces and concentrations of smaller lot areas shall be compatible with the land uses on surrounding properties.

§ 82.06.070 Adopted Planned Development Applications.

Whenever a Planned Development application is processed and adopted by the Board of Supervisors, a General Plan Amendment will be processed and adopted concurrently. The General Plan Amendment will indicate that there has been some type of change to the development standards or allowed uses within the area included within the boundaries of the Planned Development application. This General Plan Amendment will be annotated on the Land Use Zoning District Maps as a suffix to the Special Development District. The suffix will include the letters “PD” and the year of adoption and the sequence number of the specific Planned Development application that had been approved for that specific year [e.g. (PD-2006-01)]. (Ord. 4011, passed - -2007)
