This will be on a case-by-case scenario. For uses allowed in each zone, see § 154.141. Consistent with the goals and policies of the county’s General Plan, the zoning districts are formulated to provide and achieve the following purposes.
Land Use | Purpose |
Land Use | Purpose |
A - Agricultural Zone | The primary use of land is for agricultural and livestock raising purposes. Agricultural lands should be left fundamentally intact, remain in agricultural production and continue to provide the open space which is vital to the human environment. This zone is characterized by primarily agriculture uses as well as non-agriculture residential uses. |
C - Commercial Zone | Encourage commercial and retail development. It is to provide suitable areas for the location of the various types of commercial activity needed to serve the people and commerce of unincorporated the county. |
GRF-20R - Grazing, Recreation and Forestry Residential Zone | The primary use of the land for grazing, recreational, forestry and wildlife purposes. In general, this zone covers the open portion of the county which is occupied largely by grazing land, mountains and canyons. |
GRF-20S - Grazing, Recreation and Forestry Seasonal Zone | The primary use of the land for grazing, recreational, forestry and wildlife purposes. This zone covers the open portion of the county which is occupied largely by grazing land, mountains and canyons. The intent of this zone is for seasonal use of the property knowing that the county cannot provide governmental services out of season. |
I - Industrial Zone | Land which is suited for industrial development where manufacturing, processing, warehousing and fabrication of goods and material can be carried on with minimum conflict or deleterious effect upon the surrounding properties. |
PUD - Planned Unit Development Zone | This zone is to provide for uses not found in other zoning districts within the county consistent with the county’s General Plan. |
RA - Residential-Agricultural Zone | The primary use of land is for dwelling purposes, by ensuring the orderly and timely conversion of certain open land areas within the county into residential districts as the need for such land occurs. Any permitted improvements will be required to request annexation from the nearest municipality. If the application is denied by the nearest municipality and not allowed to connect to sewer and water from the municipality, standards outlined in Figure 1 in § 154.073 must be met. |
