a.
Town Center (TC).
The Town Center (TC) zone comprises the commercial and civic core of Saticoy. It
consists of one- and two-story "main street commercial" buildings with shopfront
frontages
that are built up to and accessed from the sidewalk, giving the area a small town
commercial character. Ground floor retail, artisan manufacturing and upper floor residential
or
live/work units
support an active pedestrian environment. Ground-floor residential units are not permitted.

b.
Residential/Mixed Use (R/MU).
The Residential/Mixed Use zone is comprised of a multi-use zone that accommodates
higher density housing with a maximum density of 20 dwelling units per acre.
Triplex, quadplex
, and
multi-family
units are permitted within the R/MU zone. The commercial uses allowed in the R/MU
zone are compatible with residential uses (e.g., restaurants, day-care centers), and
property zoned R/MU is within walking distance (0.25 miles) of the town center. Both
commercial and residential uses are allowed as
principal uses
within the R/MU zone, but commercial use is allowed as the sole
principal use
only on lots that cannot accommodate
multi-family
residential use.
|
The scale of multi-family buildings can be reduced by placing the third story in
the attic space.
|
New buildings in the R/MU zone are up to three stories, with ground floor residential
uses separated from the sidewalk by a small front yard, and buildings with ground
floor commercial uses are built up to and accessed from the sidewalk. Although ground-floor
commercial is allowed throughout the R/MU zone, corner lots at L.A. Avenue and Nardo
Street must include ground-floor commercial retail facing L.A. Avenue.
|
Corner lots in the Residential/Mixed Use zone on L.A. Avenue include small-scale ground
floor commercial retail.
|
c.
Residential (RES).
The Residential (RES) zone accommodates a range of single-family, duplex,
triplex
and
quadplex
units, depending on lot size. New buildings are designed to be compatible in scale
and character with the existing homes. Dwellings will be set back from the street
behind front yards, which are often enclosed by low front yard fences, walls, or hedges.
Front entries and windows face the street. Allowable uses within the RES zone are
limited to residential and home occupation.
|
New townhouses (yellow buildings in center) are designed with massing and frontage
types that fits in with adjoining single family houses (gray buildings).
|
d.
Light Industrial (IND).
The Light Industrial (IND) zone within Old Town Saticoy accommodates a variety of
light industrial and manufacturing uses, as well as some compatible commercial uses.
New buildings are up to two stories in height, and the ground floor is occupied by
industrial, manufacturing, office, and small-scale service or retail uses. Upper floors
may be occupied by industrial, manufacturing, and office uses.
