VLDCR
Very Low Density Country Residential Zone
The purpose of the VLDCR zone is to allow large lot single-family homes and related uses in existing residential neighborhoods that are adjacent to or surrounded by areas with uses of a different type or residential uses of a different density. Standards for the VLDCR zone are intended to preserve and protect the character of existing residential neighborhoods. Permitted residential uses in the VLDCR zones include single-family homes, small residential care homes, accessory dwelling units, animal grazing, on-site agricultural product sales, and private stables. The VLDCR zone conditionally permits uses compatible with a low-density residential setting including semi-private stables animal keeping, and major home-occupations. The minimum permitted parcel size in the VLDCR zone is 1 acre. The VLDCR zone implements the Very Low Density Residential land use designation in the General Plan.
