RB (General Residential)This residential zone provides for medium population density. The principal uses of land may range from houses to multi-dwelling structures or developments. Certain uses which are more compatible functionally with intensive residential uses than with commercial uses are permitted. Other related uses in keeping with the residential character of the zone may be permitted on review by the planning commission.
RequestedCR
CR (Rural Commercial)This commercial zoning district provides the opportunity to locate limited retail and service uses in a manner convenient to outlying rural areas. It is intended to provide for the recurring shopping and personal service needs of nearby rural residential areas. This zoning should be placed on properties that are located at or near intersections of arterial and/or collector streets in order to maximize accessibility from surrounding areas. The range of permitted uses is limited to those which are generally patronized on a frequent basis by area residents. Development performance standards are included to maximize compatibility between commercial uses and surrounding rural areas, and to maintain the rural character of these areas.

A large portion of the subject parcel is already zoned CA and developed with a business, part of which is in an RB zoned area. The sector plan already proposes neighborhood commercial uses for the portion of the site that is recommended for approval of CR zoning.
