Document Type: NOD - Notice of Determination
Received: 2/25/2019

Document Description: Mono County Board on approval of Ordinance OR19-01 for General Plan Amendment 19-01, which consists of two parts: A) Multi-Family Residential (MFR) Land Use Designation: The amendment proposes to adjust minimum lot sizes for developments to match current density standards. For example, the minimum lot size for condominium development of three of more units on MFR-L parcels would be changed to 3750 sq. ft. per unit to match the 15 dwelling units per acre allowance instead of the current minimum lot size of two acres (87120 square feet). The amendment allows for greater consistent across MFR parcels, creates flexibility to build on smaller MFR parcels, and encourages more efficient use of land. The amendment also includes language for permitting historically allowed transient rental use in existing MFR units with no new construction proposed. This amendment does not affect the regulation of single-family units on residential land use designations, which is governed by Chapter 25 of the Land Use Element. *See NOD for full details.
