Zoning
USR
Urban Services Residential District
Urban service areas designated on the land use map are located adjacent to the county's eighteen municipal areas, and will likely be needed for future urban development over the next 30 years. The metro urban services areas are those areas adjacent to the cities of Cedar Rapids, Marion, Hiawatha, and Robins; the non-metro urban service areas are those areas surrounding the remaining fourteen incorporated cities. It is intended that the USAs be maintained primarily for agricultural use until such time as the land is needed for orderly city development and is annexed into the adjacent city. If land within the USAs is developed under county jurisdiction, it shall be developed in a manner compatible with the adjacent city. These goals are supported through the design of the LESA system scoring criteria, where points are awarded fairly readily and the required threshold score is relatively low. The USA goals are also achieved through the UDC zoning requirements which place a maximum lot size on new development and through the MLS standards.
