The purpose of the Rancho Arroyo Specific Plan is to allow for
a more precise level of planning for the Plan Area than is ordinarily
possible, while at the same time, ensuring that orderly development
be a guiding criterion. The Rancho Arroyo Specific Plan is also intended
to provide a sufficient level of land use controls to ensure consistency
with Charter Section 1507, which states that it is the policy of the
City that its land development shall not exceed its public services
and physical and natural resources.
The regulations of this chapter apply within the Rancho Arroyo
Specific Plan (SP4-RA) Zone described in Attachment 2 of the Rancho
Arroyo Specific Plan, depicted as Area "A," Area "B," and Area "C"
in Figure 30.105, Rancho Arroyo Specific Plan Area, at the end of
this chapter, and mapped on the Official Zoning Map.
All development within the SP4-RA Zone is subject to the Permitted
Uses and Development Regulations of the Rancho Arroyo Specific Plan,
as adopted by Resolution of the City Council.
Any and all future development within the SP4-RA Zone shall
conform to the provisions of the Rancho Arroyo Specific Plan. Any
such development shall be subject all discretionary reviews as required
by the Santa Barbara Municipal Code.
