In addition to the general purposes of this title identified in chapter 17.04 of this title, the various zoning districts each serve a more specific individual purpose, as described below.
A. The A (agricultural) zoning district is proposed to provide areas for agricultural and related uses, along with very low density residential uses. This designation shall be
applied to land with appropriate topographical conditions where the intrusion of urban uses would be inappropriate or untimely, due to lack or need of urban services and facilities.
B. The R (residential) zoning districts are created to provide for the diverse needs and desires of the people of the city. These districts shall also allow for other compatible uses which may complement the primarily residential functions of the districts, under certain conditions. Basic urban services and utilities would be available in these zones:
1. The R-14 zone is intended to provide areas for single-family and two-family dwellings with a minimum lot size of 14,000 square feet.
2. The R-21 zone is intended to provide areas for single-family and two-family dwellings with a minimum lot size of 21,000 square feet.
3. The R-43 zone is intended to provide areas for single-family and two-family dwellings with a minimum lot size of 43,000 square feet.
4. The R-87 zone is intended to provide areas for single-family and two-family dwellings with a minimum lot size of 87,000 square feet.
C. The CG (commercial general) district is intended to provide various commercial uses.
D. The OS (open space) zone is intended to provide for open space land within the city and to provide for the accommodation of natural features or hazards.
E. The TC (commercial town center) district is intended to provide a “downtown” feel and provide residents a place to shop, eat and do business.
F. The HO (hillside development overlay) zone is established to protect and preserve the hillside areas of the city. The goal is to minimize adverse effects of development within these areas.
