San Joaquin County Municipal Code · 2026-09 edition · updated 2026-09-27 · San Joaquin County
Sections:
9-201.010 - PURPOSE
The specific purposes of the Commercial Zones are to:
(a)
Designate adequate land, consistent with the General Plan, for general commercial uses, including auto service uses, freeway services, rural services, offices, business and personal services, commercial recreation, and entertainment;
(b)
Maintain and strengthen the County's economic and fiscal resources, and provide employment opportunities for residents of the County;
(c)
Establish appropriate development standards and buffering requirements to protect adjacent uses and ensure land use compatibility; and
(d)
Minimize the impacts of commercial development on adjacent residential uses.
The following Commercial zones implement the General Plan's commercial land use classifications.
C-L Zone. The Limited Commercial (C-L) Zone is intended to provide for very small commercial areas that offer a limited selection of convenience goods and services and that serve a portion of an urban neighborhood. This zone provides land for limited commercial uses in residential and industrial land use designations of the General Plan, in accordance with Plan policies.
C-N Zone. The Neighborhood Commercial (C-N) Zone is intended to provide for the development of small retail and service businesses and office uses serving the surrounding residential neighborhood. This zone implements the Neighborhood Commercial land use designation of the General Plan.
C-C Zone. The Community Commercial (C-C) Zone is intended to provide for the development of community-scale shopping centers with a full range of retail and service establishments, allowing
comparison shopping and providing goods and services necessary to supply the general or commercial needs of urban communities or regional markets. This zone implements the Community Commercial land use designation of the General Plan.
C-O Zone. The Office Commercial (C-O) Zone is intended to accommodate professional and other offices located adjacent to Medium High and High Density Residential Zones or Commercial zones within Mountain House where offices are appropriate and needed. This zone implements the Office Commercial land use designation of the General Plan.
C-G Zone. The General Commercial (C-G) Zone is intended to provide for commercial areas that offer a wide variety of specialized retail and service uses and offices that are normally developed as separate individual entities rather than as part of a shopping center or business complex, serve urban communities or regional markets, and require relatively large amounts of land. This zone implements the General Commercial land use designation of the General Plan.
C-FS Zone. The Freeway Service Commercial (C-FS) Zone is intended to provide for commercial uses adjacent to freeway interchanges that are oriented almost exclusively to serve the needs of the highway traveler. This zone implements the Freeway Service land use designation of the General Plan.
C-RS Zone. The Rural Service Commercial (C-RS) Zone is intended to provide for retail and service uses within rural communities that are frequently required by rural residents and the surrounding agricultural community. The zone provides for a mix of retail uses, professional offices, and commercial services. This zone implements the Rural Service Commercial land use designation of the General Plan.
C-R Zone. The Commercial Recreation (C-R) Zone is intended to provide areas for major recreation-oriented commercial activities and associated facilities. This zone implements the Commercial Recreation land use designation of the General Plan.
C-X Zone. The Crossroads Commercial (C-X) Zone is intended to provide for a limited variety of retail and service uses and agriculturally related uses at specific intersections to serve rural residents living outside of designated urban and rural communities. This zone is appropriate for small commercial areas within an Agricultural land use designation of the General Plan, in accordance with General Plan policies.

Numbered limitations for a specific use in an individual zone ("L1, L2, etc.") refer to limitations listed at the end of the table.
