Chapter 3.20 provides regulatory standards governing land use and building form within the Transect-based zoning areas. The Zoning Code is a reflection of the community vision for implementing the intent of the General Plan. These standards are intended to ensure that proposed development is compatible with existing and future development on neighboring properties, and produces an environment of desirable character, consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan.

The requirements of Chapter 3.20 shall apply to all proposed development within Transect-based zones, and shall be considered in combination with the standards for the applicable zone in Article 4 (General to Zones) and those in Article 6 (Specific to Uses). If there is a conflict between any standards, the provisions of Article 3 (Specific to Zones) control over Article 4 and the provisions of Article 6 control over Articles 3 and 4.

Tehachapi Zoning Code | October 2014 Adopted | 3-9

Chapter 3.20 Transect Zones

A. Intent and Purpose

The RE zone is applied to areas intended for low intensity rural activity to physically define Tehachapi's edges.

1. Physical Character. Very few buildings occur in the RE zone and consist of the Barn and the Estate building types with the Small Flex Building allowed at crossroads as defined in this code. Buildings are varied in height, up to 2.5 stories and are set back from the roadway to maintain a rural environment.

• a) Property shall comply with the development standards in Section C of the RE zone;

• b) Signage shall comply with Article 7 (Signs).

2. Streetscape / Public Realm. The streetscape is in support of nature and rural activity. Frontages consist of common yards, front yards, and porches with the shopfront and gallery only on the Small Flex Building. Paths are used instead of sidewalks.

• a) New blocks shall have a minimum perimeter of 1 mile and comply with Chapter 8.20;

• b) Existing blocks shall comply with Chapter 8.20. when any of the following are modified or apply: i) vehicular access, ii) right-of-way, iii) streetscape;

• c) Adjacent streetscapes shall be improved per Chapter 8.20 when any of the following apply: i) new building or renovation/addition over 50%; ii) modification of site access; or iii) subdivision of land;

3. Land Use. Land uses activities range from agriculture to residential, limited service, office, and restaurant businesses.

• a) Existing non-conforming land uses may remain per the requirements of Chapter 10.30.040;

• b) New or expanded land use activity shall comply with Section B of the RE zone.

4. Parking. Parking is provided through a system of on-street and off-street spaces.

• a) Existing parking shall be improved when any of the following apply: i) new building or renovation/addition over 50%; ii) modification of site access; or iii) subdivision;

• b) New or expanded parking shall comply with Sections B and C.2 of the RE zone.

Examples of the RE Zone's range of intended physical character:

==> picture [252 x 140] intentionally omitted <==

Above: Agriculture, nature and very limited rural development characterize the Rural Edge zone.

==> picture [252 x 140] intentionally omitted <==

Above: Barn and accessory buildings are organized in support of rural and agricultural activities that emphasize Tehachapi's natural edges.

B. Land Use Standards

2. Multiple Land Use Types. A building or building site may utilize multiple land use types per the applicable requirements of Table 3.20.030.

Tehachapi Zoning Code | October 2014 Adopted | 3-17

Chapter 3.20 Transect Zones

A. Intent and Purpose

The NE zone is applied to areas generally along the edges of Tehachapi's lower intensity neighborhoods to provide for a transition between general neighborhoods and rural areas.

1. Physical Character. A limited range of houseform buildings shape the streetscapes and consist of the Estate, House, and Duplex building types. Buildings are varied in height, up to 2 stories, and are set back from the sidewalk to spatially define suburban streetscapes.

• a) Property shall comply with the development standards in Section C of the NE zone;

• b) Signage shall comply with Article 7 (Signs).

2. Streetscape / Public Realm. The streetscape is in support of pedestrian activity. Frontages consist of common yards, front yards and porches. Sidewalks with tree parkway strips provide for comfortable strolling.

• a) New blocks. Max perimeter: 2,000 feet, Max block length: 600 feet, shall comply with Chapter 8.20;

• b) Existing blocks shall comply with Chapter 8.20 when any of the following are modified or apply: i) vehicular access, ii) right-of-way, iii) streetscape, iv) block exceeds 700 feet on any side;

• c) Adjacent streetscapes shall be improved per Chapter 8.20 when any of the following apply: i) new building or renovation/addition over 50%; ii) modification of site access; or iii) subdivision;

• d) Open space shall be provided per Chapter 8.10 when any of the following apply: i) new building or renovation/addition over 50%; ii) modification of site access; or iii) subdivision;

3. Land Use. Land use activities are residential with limited home occupations and suburban agriculture.

• a) Existing non-conforming land uses may remain per the requirements of Chapter 10.30.040;

• b) New or expanded land use activity shall comply with Section B of the NE zone.

4. Parking. Parking is provided through a system of on-street and off-street spaces.

• a) Existing parking shall be improved when any of the following apply: i) new building or renovation/addition over 50%; ii) modification of site access; or iii) subdivision;

Examples of the NE Zone's range of intended physical character:

==> picture [252 x 140] intentionally omitted <==

Above: House-form buildings with large yards shape the streetscapes.

==> picture [252 x 140] intentionally omitted <==

Above: House-form buildings and their extensions in large yards such as porches and balconies visually dominate over vehicular driveways and parking.

• b) New or expanded parking shall comply with Sections B and C.2 of the NE zone.

B. Land Use Standards

1. Allowed Land Use Types. Table 3.20.050 identifies the allowed land use activity, the required permit, the amount of required parking and any special requirements. The identified permit is required prior to establishing operations;

2. Multiple Land Use Types. A building or building site may utilize multiple land use types per the applicable requirements of Table 3.20.050.

3. Location and Size of Land Use Type. In order to promote land use compatibility, allowed land use types shall comply with the identified requirements for size and location.
