Chapter 9 — 700M - INTENT AND ORGANIZATION OF OTHER ZONES

9-700.1M - TITLE AND INTENT.

The intents of the other zones are amended as follows:

(a)

P-F Zone. The public facilities (P-F) zone in Mountain House 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.
