Open Space Zoning Ordinance. The intent and purpose of the agricultural exclusive, forestry, open space and timberland preserve zone districts and their regulations, as set forth in Articles 17.08 et seq., of this chapter, together with all other applicable provisions of this chapter, are consistent with the intent of the open space plan, and shall constitute the open space zoning ordinance of Placer County required by Section 65910 et seq., of the California Government Code.
(Ord. 5126-B, 2001; Ord. 5419-B (Exh. 1), 2006; Ord. 6048-B § 3, 2020)
The boundaries of the zone and combining districts established by Section 17.06.020 shall be shown upon the maps designated as the Placer County zoning maps. The Placer County zoning maps, together with all legends, symbols, notations, references, district boundaries, district map codes, and other information thereon shall be adopted by the Placer County board of supervisors pursuant to California Government Code Section 65800 et seq., and are incorporated into this Chapter 17 by reference as though they were fully set forth here. Any changes to the Placer County zoning maps after their adoption shall be accomplished as set forth in Section 17.60.090 (Ordinance amendments and rezonings).
(Ord. 5126-B, 2001)
A.
Restriction
on New Land Uses. No use of land, buildings or structures shall be
established, constructed, reconstructed, altered, allowed or replaced
unless:
1.
The land use (as defined by Article 17.04 (Definitions)) is identified by Sections 17.06.050 (Land use and permit tables) and 17.06.060 through 17.52.140 (Zone district regulations) as being allowable in the zone and combining district applicable to the site; and
2.
Any land use permit required by this chapter is obtained before the proposed use is constructed, otherwise established or put into operation, unless the proposed use is identified by following subsection (B) (Exemptions from Land Use Permit Requirements) as not needing a land use permit. The land use permit requirements of this chapter are established by Sections 17.06.050 through 17.52.140, and by Article 17.56 (Specific Use Requirements); and
B.
Exemptions
From Land Use Permit Requirements. The land use permit requirements
of this chapter do not apply to the following activities, uses of
land and structures:
1.
Ordinary
repairs and maintenance, if the work does not result in any change
in the approved land use of the site or building, or the addition
to, enlargement or expansion of the building. (Design review approval
may be required in some cases);
2.
Activities
of the federal government on leased or federally owned land, when
used exclusively for a governmental purpose, unless otherwise designated
by the federal government;
3.
Activities
of Placer County or any district that the board of supervisors governs;
4.
Activities
of the state of California or an agency of the state acting in its
sovereign (governmental) capacity on leased or state owned land when
used exclusively for a governmental purpose, unless otherwise designated
by the state of California;
5.
Certain
school, water, wastewater, and electrical power facilities of local
agencies as provided by California Government Code Section 53091 et
seq.
C.
Temporary Uses. Requirements for establishing a temporary use are in Section 17.56.300 (Temporary uses and events).
D.
Other
Permits May Still be Required. An allowed land use that has obtained
a required land use permit may still be required to obtain other permits,
or authorizations before the use is constructed, or otherwise established
and put into operation. Nothing in this article shall eliminate the
need to obtain building, grading or other construction permits if
they are required by Chapter 15 of this code, a business license if
required by Chapter 5 of this code, subdivision approval if required
by Chapter 16, a take authorization or an authorization to impact
aquatic resources if required by Article 19.10, or any permit required
by the county health department, air pollution control district, other
county department, state or federal agency. All other necessary permits
shall be obtained before starting construction, grading or vegetation
removal, or establishing new uses in conjunction with any project.
Where a California Land Conservation Act (Williamson Act) Agreement
exists that includes a specific parcel of land, the provisions of
that Agreement, as well as the provisions of Chapter 6, Placer County
Administrative Rules and Section 51200 et seq., of the California
Government Code also apply.
(Ord. 5126-B, 2001; Ord. 6041-B § 4, 2020)
Where Section 17.06.050 requires zoning clearance as a prerequisite to establishing a land use, evaluation of the proposed use by the planning department to determine whether such clearance may be granted shall be accomplished as follows. No building, grading or other construction permit, or business license or other authorization required by this code for a proposed use shall be issued by the responsible department until zoning clearance has been granted by the planning department, or a discretionary land use permit has been approved for the use pursuant to Article 17.58 (Discretionary land use permit procedures).
A.
Timing
of Clearance. A zoning clearance evaluation and the granting of such
clearance shall be accomplished by the planning department at the
time of their review of any building, grading or other construction
permit, or business license or other authorization required by this
code for the proposed use. Where no such other authorization is required,
a request for zoning clearance shall be filed with the planning department
using the forms provided, and shall be reviewed and approved or disapproved
within five days of filing.
B.
Criteria for Clearance. Zoning clearance shall be granted by the planning department only when the permit application needing clearance contains sufficient information for the planning department to verify that the proposed use will be consistent with the requirements for the filing of applications in Section 17.58.040 (Filing of applications).
(Ord. 5126-B, 2001)
A.
Types of Land Uses Allowed. The uses of land allowed by this chapter in each zone and combining district established by Section 17.06.010 are identified in the following tables (subsection (D) of this section), and in Sections 17.06.060 et seq. (Zone district regulations). Land uses that are not listed on the tables in subsection (D) of this section, or are not shown in a particular zone district are not allowed, except where otherwise provided by Sections 17.06.030(B) (Exemptions from land use permit requirements), 17.56.300 (Temporary uses), or 17.02.050(C) (Allowable uses of land).
B.
Type of Permit Required. When the tables in subsection (D) of this section and the zone and combining district requirements of Sections 17.06.060 et seq., show a particular land use as being allowable in a zone, the use is identified as being subject to one of the following land use permit requirements.
1.
Zoning
Compliance. These uses are allowed without land use permit approval
subject to compliance with all applicable provisions of this chapter
("A" uses on the tables). No land use permit is required for "A" uses
because they typically involve no or minimal construction activities,
are accessory to some other land use that will be the primary use
of a site (which will require a land use permit), or are otherwise
entirely consistent with the purposes of the particular zone.
2.
Zoning Clearance. These uses are allowable subject to zoning clearance ("C" uses on the tables) (see Section 17.06.040). Zoning clearance is a routine land use approval that involves planning department staff checking a proposed development to ensure that all applicable zoning requirements will be satisfied (e.g., setbacks, height limits, parking requirements, etc.). Zoning clearance is required by this ordinance for land uses that are consistent with the basic purposes of the particular zone (e.g., houses in residential zones), and are unlikely to create any problems that will not be adequately handled by the development standards of Article 17.54 of this ordinance (General Development Standards) and this subsection.
3.
Administrative Review Permit (ARP). These uses are allowable subject to approval of an administrative review permit (see Section 17.58.100). Administrative review permit approval is required for certain land uses that are generally consistent with the purposes of the zone, but could create minor problems for adjoining properties if they are not designed with sensitivity to surrounding land uses. The purposes of an administrative review permit are to allow planning division staff and the zoning administrator to evaluate a proposed use to ensure that all applicable zoning requirements will be satisfied (e.g., setbacks, height limits, parking requirements, etc.) to determine if problems may occur, to work with the project applicant to adjust the project through conditions of approval to solve any potential problems that are identified, or to disapprove a project if identified problems cannot be acceptably corrected.
4.
Minor Use Permit (MUP). These uses are allowable subject to approval of a minor use permit ("MUP") (Section 17.58.120). Minor use permit approval is required for certain land uses that are generally consistent with the purposes of the zone, but could create problems for adjoining properties, the surrounding area, and their populations if such uses are not designed to be compatible with surrounding land uses. The purpose of a minor use permit is to allow planning department staff and the zoning administrator to evaluate a proposed use to determine if problems may occur, to provide the public with an opportunity to review the proposed project and express their concerns in a public hearing, to work with the project applicant to adjust the project through conditions of approval to solve any potential problems that are identified, or to disapprove a project if identified problems cannot be acceptably corrected.
5.
Conditional Use Permit (CUP). These uses are allowable subject to approval of a conditional use permit ("CUP") (Section 17.58.130). Conditional use permit approval is required for certain land uses that may be appropriate in a zone, depending on the design of the individual project, and the characteristics of the proposed site and surroundings. Such uses can either raise major land use policy issues or could create serious problems for adjoining properties, the surrounding area, and their populations if such uses are not appropriately located and designed. The purpose of a conditional use permit is to allow planning department staff and the Placer County planning commission to evaluate a proposed use to determine if problems may occur, to provide the public with an opportunity to review the proposed project and express their concerns in a public hearing, to work with the project applicant to adjust the project through conditions of approval to solve any potential problems that are identified, or to disapprove a project if identified problems cannot be acceptably corrected.
|
All allowable land uses shall obtain any building permit, take authorization, authorization to impact aquatic resources or other permit required by this code (see Section 17.06.030(D)), in addition to the land use permit required by this section or Sections 17.06.060 et seq.
|
C.
Land Use Definitions. Definitions of the titles of the land uses listed in the land use tables (subsection D of this section) are in Article 17.04 (Definitions).
D.
Tables. The following tables, and the lists of allowable uses in Sections 17.06.060 et seq., contain the same requirements for allowable uses and land use permit requirements. The tables in this section are for convenience, to simultaneously show all zone districts, the uses allowed within them, and the permit requirements applicable to each use.
