R-3
Residential District
The R-3 Zoning Districts are expected to accommodate a large percentage of the residential growth projected in unincorporated Lake County over the 20-year planning horizon covered by the Regional Framework Plan. The districts are primarily intended to accommodate moderate density residential development that can be served by the full range of infrastructure. The districts are generally intended to be applied in areas with existing infrastructure. The uses and densities allowed in the R-3 Districts 1.33 to 2.5 units per acre offer county residents a variety of housing choices in the moderate density range. The R-3 Districts are intended to implement the Regional Framework Plan’s Residential future land use designations.
