13.45.010: PURPOSE OF PROVISIONS:
The purpose of the O-R-D Zone is to provide an aesthetically attractive environment where flexibility in the land use mix can be fostered. The primary intent of the zone is to establish a specific area where more intensive office, research and development facilities can be located. However, the complexity of the land in the zone and its adjacency to a major freeway access supports the incorporation of subordinate, and compatible multi-family residential and general commercial activity such as travel and tourism related uses. Retail, service, convenience and food establishments are considered appropriate for the zone when developed with proper site plan and architectural design guidelines. The zone is intended to ensure compatibility of new development with the surrounding land uses, including adjacent residential developments, and to enhance and support the overall economic health and housing needs of the City.
