Antelope Valley Area Plan Update Land Use Policy
Land Use Policy • Rural Preservation Strategy • Maintain rural lifestyle • Environment and biology protection • Open space preservation • Continued agricultural uses • Conservation of non-renewable resources • Increased mobility options
Land Use Policy • How the Land Use Policy was applied • Workshop participants helped to define general areas • Land use designations within existing communities include “higher” densities, ranging from RL5 on the low end to H30 on the high end • Less developed areas are based on the Hazards and Environmental Constraints Map where the lowest densities are applied, ranging from RL40 on the low end to RL10 on the high end
Land Use Policy • How the Land Use Policy was applied • Hazards and Environmental Constraints Map Class I = 1du/10ac Class II = 1du/20ac Class III = 1du/40ac
Land Use Policy • How the Land Use Policy was applied
Land Use Policy and Zoning • Connection between Land Use Policy and Zoning • Land Use Policy provides the overall framework and general direction for development of a parcel • Zoning implements Land Use Policy by detailing the specific development standards for individual parcels • Zoning has to be consistent with the Land Use Policy
Zoning • Determines the permitted uses on a parcel • Spells out specific development standards regulating the use of individual parcels (i.e. setbacks, max heights, min lot sizes etc.) • Has the force of law; provisions are enforced by the County • Ensures that the exercise of an individual owner’s property rights does not encroach upon the rights of another property owner
Zoning - Current • R-1: Single-family Residence Zone • R-2: Two-family Residence Zone • R-3: Limited Multiple Residence Zone • R-A: Residential Agricultural Zone • A-1: Light Agriculture Zone • A-2: Heavy Agriculture Zone • C-1: Restricted Business Zone • C-2: Neighborhood Business Zone • C-3: Unlimited Commercial Zone • M-1: Light Manufacturing Zone • M-2: Heavy Manufacturing Zone • D-2: Desert-Mountain Zone • R-R: Resort-Recreation Zone *This is not an inclusive listing of all zones.

Possible Uses Agricultural and Residential
Land Use Policy and Zoning Density vs Minimum Lot Size • Density (Land Use Policy) • Determines the number of dwelling units allowed in a given parcel (i.e. RL10 allows 2 units in 20 ac, 4 units in 40 ac, 6 units in 60 ac etc.) • determines the number of parcels a property can be subdivided into • Minimum Lot Size (Zoning) • determines the smallest size any one of the resulting parcels can be (i.e. A-2-10,000 = 10,000 sq ft; A-2-2 = 2 acres)
Land Use Policy and Zoning Density vs Minimum Lot Size Sample Scenario: 40 ac lot, RL10, A-2-2 * RL10 will allow 4 units in 40 acres * A-2-2 will allow newly subdivided lots as small as 2 acres 10 ac 10 ac 34 ac 2 ac 2 ac 2 ac 10 ac 10 ac
