DIVISION 3: RESIDENTIAL ZONES <br /> CHAPTER 9-300 <br /> RESIDENTIAL ZONES: INTENT AND ORGANIZATION <br /> Sections: <br /> 9-300.1 Intent <br /> 9-300.2 Organization <br /> Section 9-300.1 Intent. Division 3 constitutes the Residential Zones. The intent of this Division <br /> is to prescribe use, lot, and structure regulations for residential zones within San Joaquin County, <br /> consistent with the Community Deve*7pmerrt Element of the General Plan. The names and intents of <br /> the Residential Zones are as follows: <br /> (a) R-R Zone. The Rural Residential (R-R) Zone is intended to provide for large lot rural <br /> homesdes within or adjacent to existing rural communities. Lots will generally have <br /> sufficient area to allow for individual water supply, sewage disposal, and storm water <br /> drainage, but densities greater than one dwelling unit per two net acres shall require <br /> community water and drainage systems. Typically, areas in this zone will contain <br /> parcels too small to suppovt significant commercial agriculture, yet suitable for <br /> residential use without undue detriment to the agricultural productivity of San Joaquin <br /> County. This zone is intended to implement the Rural Residential land-use category <br /> of the General Plan. <br /> (b) R-VL Zone. The Very Low Density Residential (R-VL) Zone is intended as a <br />_ transition from rural to urban areas allowing for detached, single-family dwellings on <br /> large lots located in areas with existing large lot development, within communities <br /> around sensitive natural resources, or on the urban fringes. This zone is intended to <br /> implement the Very Low Density Residential land-use category of the General Plan. <br /> (c) R-L Zone. The Low Density Residential (R-L) Zone is intended to provide for <br /> neighborhoods consisting of detached, single-family residences, located within or <br /> immediately adjacent to population centers which are served by a public water <br /> supply, sanitary sewer system, and similar facilities and services. This zone is <br /> intended to implement the Low Density Residential land-use category of the General <br /> Plan. <br /> 300-1 <br /> August 31, 1989 <br />
