  14. Land Use Policy

  15. Land Use Policy • How the Land Use Policy was applied • Workshop participants helped to define general areas • Land use designations within existing communities include “higher” densities, ranging from RL5 on the low end to H30 on the high end • Less developed areas are based on the Hazards and Environmental Constraints Map where the lowest densities are applied, ranging from RL40 on the low end to RL10 on the high end

  16. Land Use Policy • How the Land Use Policy was applied • Hazards and Environmental Constraints Map Class I = 1du/10ac Class II = 1du/20ac Class III = 1du/40ac

  17. Land Use Policy • How the Land Use Policy was applied

  18. Land Use Policy and Zoning • Connection between Land Use Policy and Zoning • Land Use Policy provides the overall framework and general direction for development of a parcel • Zoning implements Land Use Policy by detailing the specific development standards for individual parcels • Zoning has to be consistent with the Land Use Policy

  19. Antelope Valley Area Plan Update Zoning

  20. Zoning • Determines the permitted uses on a parcel • Spells out specific development standards regulating the use of individual parcels (i.e. setbacks, max heights, min lot sizes etc.) • Has the force of law; provisions are enforced by the County • Ensures that the exercise of an individual owner’s property rights does not encroach upon the rights of another property owner

  21. Zoning - Current • R-1: Single-family Residence Zone • R-2: Two-family Residence Zone • R-3: Limited Multiple Residence Zone • R-A: Residential Agricultural Zone • A-1: Light Agriculture Zone • A-2: Heavy Agriculture Zone • C-1: Restricted Business Zone • C-2: Neighborhood Business Zone • C-3: Unlimited Commercial Zone • M-1: Light Manufacturing Zone • M-2: Heavy Manufacturing Zone • D-2: Desert-Mountain Zone • R-R: Resort-Recreation Zone *This is not an inclusive listing of all zones.

  22. Zoning - New • R-1: Single-family Residence Zone • R-2: Two-family Residence Zone • R-3: Limited Multiple Residence Zone • R-A: Residential Agricultural Zone • A-1: Light Agriculture • A-2: Heavy Agriculture • C-RU: Rural Commercial • MXD –RU: Rural Mixed Use • M-1: Light Manufacturing Zone • M-2: Heavy Manufacturing Zone • C-R: Commercial Recreation Zone • (no C-1, C-2, C-3, D-2 and R-R zones in the AV) *This is not an inclusive listing of all zones.

  28. Land Use Policy and Zoning Density vs Minimum Lot Size • Density (Land Use Policy) • Determines the number of dwelling units allowed in a given parcel (i.e. RL10 allows 2 units in 20 ac, 4 units in 40 ac, 6 units in 60 ac etc.) • determines the number of parcels a property can be subdivided into • Minimum Lot Size (Zoning) • determines the smallest size any one of the resulting parcels can be (i.e. A-2-10,000 = 10,000 sq ft; A-2-2 = 2 acres)

  29. Land Use Policy and Zoning Density vs Minimum Lot Size Sample Scenario: 40 ac lot, RL10, A-2-2 * RL10 will allow 4 units in 40 acres * A-2-2 will allow newly subdivided lots as small as 2 acres 10 ac 10 ac 34 ac 2 ac 2 ac 2 ac 10 ac 10 ac
