Code Section Overview of Proposed Amendment
10-1-602: Uses in R-1 and
R-1-H Zones
Table 10-1-602 that identifies permitted uses in the R -1 and R-1-H Zones would be amended to include SB 9 –
Second Single-Family Dwelling as a use. The use would
be permitted in the R-1 Zone and would be prohibited in the R-1-H Zone.
In addition, a footnote would be added to a separate use that currently exists on the list “Single family Dwellings, additional, on one lot”. This use has allowed for
additional single -family homes on a single -family lot through the approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP).
The footnote would state that “Single family Dwellings, additional, on one lot”, in addition to the First Single Family Dwelling, would not be permitted if there exist an SB 9 – Second Single Family Dwelling on the property.
