Eastside Overlay Zone

Eastside Overlay Zone

The City is proposing to establish an East Side Overlay Zone in the eastern portion of Lancaster. An overlay zone is a zoning district which is applied over one or more previously established zoning districts, establishing additional or stricter standards and criteria for covered properties in addition to those of the underlying zoning district. In addition to the permitted uses under the existing RR-2.5 (Rural Residential, 1 du/ac) and R-7,000 (Single Family Residential, minimum lot size 7,000 square feet) zones, the overlay zone would allow for additional uses. Generally, the proposed overlay zone would permit new light industrial uses such as alcohol production, contractor storage yards, and research and development. Other new uses subject to conditional use permits include alternative energy uses; automobile repair; building trades and related uses; distribution; food manufacturing, processing, wholesale sales, and storage; light manufacturing; and warehousing. The proposed overlay zone also provides development standards related to parking, height, noise, and other additional standards for the light industrial uses.
