R1-10
Low Density Residential Zone
The R1-10 Zone is designed to provide for an area of one-family residential development at a density level consistent with the City Community Plan. The standards of the zone are intended to preserve an open and uncrowded character and protect the unique residential environment of Del Mar. The standards are intended to promote and protect those special amenities associated with a district of single-family homes. Factors of topography and environmental sensitivities, the character of existing, low-density residential areas, and the need to identify Del Mar as a distinct and separate community shall be taken into account in administering the standards contained herein.
