Santa Clarita Municipal Code § 17.35.030 Mixed Use Urban

§ 17.35.010. Mixed Use Corridor (MXC) Zone.¶

This zone is intended for mixed use development, which is encouraged along specified commercial corridors in which revitalization of underutilized parcels or aging buildings is desired, subject to the applicable requirements of the code. Mixed uses along corridors may be either vertical or horizontal; provided, that residential units in these areas should be protected from adverse impacts of high-volume arterial streets, and will typically be located an appropriate distance from the roadway. Nonresidential uses consistent with this district include those in the neighborhood commercial (CN) and community commercial (CC) districts. The residential density range in mixed use corridors shall be a minimum of eleven (11) to a maximum of thirty (30) dwelling units per acre, and maximum floor area ratio for the nonresidential portion of the development shall be 1.0.

A. Development Standards. Property in the MXC zone shall be subject to the following general development standards:

1.	Maximum density (units per gross acre)	30
2.	Minimum density (units per gross acre) 1	11
3.	Maximum floor area ratio (FAR) of nonresidential component	1.0
4.	Minimum floor area ratio (FAR) of nonresidential component 1	0.25
5.	Building setback from public right-of-way (major or secondary highway) (in feet)	5
6.	Building setback from public right-of-way (not on a major or secondary highway) (in feet)	0
7.	Surface-level parking setback from major/secondary highway (in feet)	10/5
8.	Structure setback from neighboring residential zones or uses (in feet) 2	25
9.	Maximum height of building/structure without a CUP (in feet)	50

Notes:
1. Floor area ratios and densities less than the minimum required shall be subject to a minor use permit, except that a multifamily project that includes at least twenty percent (20%) of total project units as affordable to lower income households shall be permitted without need for use permit on any of the following parcels: 2811-002-069 and 2836-011-018.
2. Buildings that are exclusively residential shall be set back at least twenty-five (25) feet from commercial/mixed use zoned property lines so as not to encumber the commercial development potential of the adjacent parcel.

Additional property development standards contained in Division 6 of this title (Development Standards) shall apply to all property and structures permitted in mixed use zones.

B. Permitted Uses. The following uses shall be permitted where the symbol "P" appears; a minor use permit is required where the symbol "M" appears; a conditional use permit is required where the symbol "C" appears; a temporary use permit is required where a "T" appears; an administrative permit is required where the symbol "AP" appears; and a hillside development review is required where an "H" appears. Any use not listed is considered a prohibited use in this zone. The Director may deem additional uses to be permitted based on a finding that the use is similar in nature and operation to the permitted uses listed in this subsection, in accordance with Chapter 17.04 (Interpretations). Land use descriptions are contained in Division 5 of this title (Use Classifications and Required Parking). Parking requirements for mixed uses shall be subject to Section 17.55.050 (Parking Requirements).

Nonresidential uses consistent with this district include those in the neighborhood commercial (CN) and community commercial (CC) districts. The residential density range in mixed use neighborhoods shall be a minimum of six (6) to a maximum of eighteen (18) dwelling units per acre, and maximum floor area ratio for the nonresidential portion of the development shall be 0.5. Building heights shall not exceed fifty (50) feet.

A. Development Standards. Property in the MXN zone shall be subject to the following general development standards:

1.	Maximum density (units per gross acre)	18

8.	Structure setback from neighboring residential zones or uses (in feet) 2	25
9.	Maximum height of building/structure (in feet)	50

Notes:
1. Floor area ratios and densities less than the minimum required shall be subject to a minor use permit.
2. Buildings that are exclusively residential shall be set back at least twenty-five (25) feet from commercial/mixed use zoned property lines so as not to encumber the commercial development potential of the adjacent parcel.

§ 17.35.030. Mixed Use Urban Village (MXUV) Zone.¶

This zone is intended for transit-oriented urban villages that are located in proximity to commuter rail and bus transfer stations, which is encouraged in order to promote compact, connected environments for residents to live, work, shop, access needed services, and recreate, without having to use their vehicles. Either vertical or horizontal mixed uses are allowed, subject to the applicable requirements of the zoning ordinance. Nonresidential uses consistent with this district include those in the neighborhood commercial (CN), community commercial (CC), and regional commercial (CR) districts. Single-use residential or commercial projects which do not contain mixed uses will be allowed in these districts only if such projects are designed to integrate with other uses in the area so as to create interconnected, walkable neighborhoods, and do not include incompatible uses or design features contrary to the intent of the district. The residential density range in urban villages shall be a minimum of nineteen (19) to a maximum of fifty (50) dwelling units per acre and the maximum floor area ratio (FAR) for the nonresidential portion of the development shall be 3.0.

A. Development Standards. Property in the MXUV zone shall be subject to the following general development standards:

1.	Maximum density (units per gross acre)	50
2.	Minimum density (units per gross acre) 1	19
3.	Maximum floor area ratio (FAR) of nonresidential component	3.0:1.0
4.	Minimum floor area ratio (FAR) of nonresidential component 1	0.3:1.0
5.	Building setback from public right-of-way (major or secondary highway) (in feet)	5
6.	Building setback from public right-of-way (not on a major or secondary highway) (in feet)	0
7.	Surface-level parking setback from major/secondary highway (in feet)	10/5
8.	Structure setback from residential zones or uses (in feet) 2	25
9.	Maximum height of building/structure without a CUP (in feet)	50

Notes:
1. Floor area ratios and densities less than the minimum required shall be subject to a minor use permit.
2. Buildings that are exclusively residential shall be set back at least twenty-five (25) feet from commercial/mixed use zoned property lines so as not to encumber the commercial development potential of the adjacent parcel.

Additional property development standards contained in Division 6 of this title (Development Standards) shall apply to all property and structures permitted in mixed use zones.
