Chapter 17.22
RR-2 MEDIUM DENSITY RURAL RESIDENTIAL ZONE
Sections:
17.22.040 Minimum property development standards.
17.22.010 Intent.
The RR-2 medium density rural residential zone is intended for rural areas adjacent to the developed land in the city where the land use patterns are in a state of transition from agricultural to urban uses. This zone provides for the development of “rural atmosphere” type land uses that allow for half-acre to five-acre lot sizes developed for principally residential uses. This zone would allow limited agricultural operations and would allow limited numbers of small and large animals, depending on the lot size. (Ord. 472 § 3, 2010; Ord. 441 § 1, 2000).
17.22.020 Permitted uses.
Permitted uses allowed in the RR-2 zone are set forth in Table 17.22-1. (Ord. 472 § 3, 2010; Ord. 441 § 1, 2000).
17.22.030 Conditional uses.
Conditional uses allowed in the RR-2 zone, subject to the conditional use permit regulations, are set forth in Table 17.22-1.
