§ 9-5.3601 ZONING MAP.
   (A)   The designations, locations, and boundaries of the districts established are delineated upon the map entitled “Zoning Map for the City of Antioch, California,” dated May 14, 1956, which map and all notations and information thereon are hereby made a part of this chapter by reference. Any land within the incorporated limits of the city, now or in the future, and not designated or indicated on the zoning map shall receive a zoning classification conforming to that designated by the General Land Use Plan of the city.
   (B)   The designations, locations, and boundaries of the districts established delineated upon the map entitled "Zoning Map for the City of Antioch, California," shall, as required by State law, be consistent with the Antioch General Plan.
      (1)   Consistent with the provisions and intent of the General Plan pertaining to the “A” Street Corridor Focused Planning Area, existing residential zoning is considered to be consistent with the General Plan, until such time as lands within the corridor are converted to commercial uses as delineated in policies for the “A” Street Focused Planning Area. Changes of zone from residential to commercial land use districts shall be considered to be consistent with the General Plan if they include frontage along “A” Street or the State Route 4 freeway, encompass a minimum of one- half developable acre, and include the majority of a block face from intersection to intersection.
      (2)   (a)   Consistent with the provisions and intent of the General Plan pertaining to the area along 18th Street between “A” Street and Hillcrest Avenue, existing residential zoning is considered to be consistent with the General Plan, until such time as lands within the corridor are converted to commercial uses as delineated on the General Plan land use map.
         (b)   Changes of zone from residential to commercial land use districts shall be considered to be consistent with the General Plan if they include frontage along 18th Street and encompass an area meeting minimum parcel size regulations for the district to which the change of zone is requested.
      (3)   Consistent with the provisions and intent of the General Plan pertaining to the area along Contra Loma Boulevard south of the State Route 4 freeway, existing uses are considered to be consistent with the General Plan, as are the zoning districts reflecting such existing uses. Changes of zone along Contra Loma Boulevard south of the State Route 4 freeway shall be considered to be consistent with the General Plan if they reflect the uses specifically identified in the General Plan Land Use Element.
      (4)   Consistent with the provisions and intent of the General Plan, existing single family dwellings within multiple family zones are considered to be consistent with the General Plan, and to be treated as conforming uses pursuant to the provisions of this title.

ARTICLE 37: DETERMINATION OF BOUNDARIES
§ 9-5.3701 DETERMINATION OF BOUNDARIES.
   Where the exact boundaries of a district cannot be readily or exactly determined by reference to the zoning map of the city, the boundary shall be deemed to be along the nearest street line or lot line, as the case may be. If a district boundary line divides or splits a lot or parcel of land of less than 12,000 square feet of area, the entire lot or parcel shall be deemed to fall within the zoning district in which the preponderance of such lot or parcel lies. Where said preponderance cannot be determined, such lot or parcel shall be deemed to fail entirely within the more restrictive zoning district. In the case of parcels in acreage in excess of 12,000 square feet and in all cases where the methods of determination of this section are inappropriate, the boundaries shall be determined by scaling the location of such boundaries as shown upon the zoning map.

§ 9-5.3802 INTRODUCTION TO LAND USE REGULATIONS.
   (A)   The charts and text in § 9-5.3803 are adopted as the city's basic land use regulations. The uses shown in this chart are divided into five groups:
      (1)   Residential;
      (2)   Public and semi-public;
      (3)   Commercial;
      (4)   Industrial; and
      (5)   Temporary uses.
   (B)   To determine in which zone a specific use is allowed:
      (1)   Find the use on the left hand side of the table.
      (2)   Read across the chart until either a number or a letter appears in one of the columns.
      (3)   If a number appears, this means that the use is allowed in the zone represented by that column, but only if certain special requirements are met. The requirements applicable to that use are listed in this article. The number appearing in the zoning column corresponds to the number of the footnote.
      (4)   If a “P” appears in the column, the use is permitted in that zone by right. If a “U” appears in the column, a use permit is required. If an “A” appears, an administrative use permit is required which can be issued by the Zoning Administrator or designated staff. If no letter or number appears in the column, then the use is not allowed in that zone.
      (5)   The Planning Commission shall interpret the appropriate zone for any land use not specifically mentioned in this chart and not similar to any use listed.
      (6)   If a specific use does not appear in the chart, contact the Community Development Department for assistance.
      (7)   In the Hillside Planned Development (HPD), Planned Development (PD), Combining (B), Manufactured Housing Combining (T), and Senior Housing Overlay (SH) Districts use permit approval is required for all uses.
      (8)   In the Mixed Use Medical Facility (MUF) District, a final development plan and use permit approval is required for all uses. Processing of final development plans and use permits in the MUMF District shall be as outlined in the Planned Development District (PD) section of this chapter.
