MEMORANDUM
May 16, 1974
TO: CITY MANAGER
FROM: PLANNING DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: PROPOSED REVISION TO THE RP ZONE
The Residential-Professional Zone has been modified in
several areas as part of a zone code (ZCA-52) revision
to the zoning code. The attached summary indicates
those areas which have been expanded, eliminated or
deleted. The major change occurs in the permitted uses
outlined in Section 21.20.020. Additionally the ordinance
format now includes an intent and purpose section which
doesn't occur in the existing code. It also outlines
accessory uses and prohibited uses neither of which are in
the present ordinance. The proposed RP Ordinance additionally
has a conditional use permit section as an integral part.
Conditional uses are presently outlined in the Conditional
Use Permit Section of the zoning code and by including a
CUP Section in the RP Zone, it eliminates a reference
problem.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of this re-
vision as my recommendation that the Council adopt a
resolution approving the revision to the RP Zone.
