There is hereby established a zone which shall hereinafter be known as the "S-F single-family residential zone," and which shall function and serve as set out in this chapter.
(Prior code § 9205.04)
The intent and purpose of the S-F zone is to principally designate and classify certain residential areas within the city that may best facilitate the development of single-family residential neighborhoods, and where the lifestyles and environmental characteristics, under a controlled distribution of population, lend themselves to the attainment of individual family living in an urban setting.
(Prior code § 9205.04 (A))
A. 
The S-F zone is a land use classification which, in part, assists in the implementation of the residential land use and housing elements of the general plan. It is one of the most selective of residential zone classifications, designed to provide for one single-family dwelling unit on a separate lot, and to be applied on selective areas of the community that possess sufficient environmental characteristics most conducive to single-family lifestyles.
B. 
Application of the S-F zone may include such recreational, religious and educational facilities, when deemed to be essential elements of a balanced neighborhood, but it must also be clearly protected from the encroachment of land uses that do not perform a residential neighborhood function.
C. 
Uses of land which do not qualify and which are not specifically permitted in the S-F zone are hereby expressly prohibited.
(Prior code § 9205.04 (B))
Regulations governing permitted uses of land in the S-F zone are specifically set forth in Chapter 18.40 of this title.
(Prior code § 9205.04 (C))
Regulations governing the development of property for uses in the S-F zone are specifically set forth in Chapter 18.42 of this title.
(Prior code § 9205.04 (D))
Regulations governing off-street parking requirements for uses and development of property in the S-F zone are specifically set forth in Chapter 18.44 of this title.
(Prior code § 9205.04 (E))
Regulations governing permitted signs and advertising for uses and development of property in the S-F zone are specifically set forth in Chapter 18.46 of this title.
(Prior code § 9205.04 (F))
