5.2

Riverside County Draft Land Use Code (Ordinance No. 348)

The proposal is to consider Phase I of the draft Land Use Code (Chapters 17.04-17.40), together with a draft Development Manual and a proposed Amendment to County Ordinance No. 460 (Regulating the Division of Land of the County of Riverside). The draft Land Use Code consists of thirty-one proposed zoning classifications established with a direct relationship to the General Plan Foundation components. The new code is organized around a simplified outline format and will consolidate the multiplicity of County permits into three types of permits based upon the approval body and whether noticing or a hearing is required. These will be identified as a Level 1, Level II, or Level III permit.

5.3

Riverside County Development Manual and Amendment to Riverside County Ordinance No. 460

The draft Development Manual is intended to provide a single comprehensive source of information for the public or staff to obtain systematic directions for the processing of various types of subdivisions or other processes regulated by the State Subdivision Map Act, within the unincorporated areas of Riverside County. A good deal of the information being placed into the Development Manual currently resides within County Ordinance No. 460, therefore it is necessary to amend that ordinance to remove such language, procedures, terms, and definitions and insert them into the Manual. The Ordinance is also being amended for consistency with the County's General Plan.
