SHAR TZ, cit rk APPkOVED AS TO CONTENT: MIZHAEL SHELTON, City Manager APPROVED AS TO FORM: F Y JOR S City Attorney PR PARED BY: HENRY ENGE , Commu4Aty Development Director In much of Atascadero Colony, the original subdivision created lots which are excessively long and narrow, as much as five times longer than wide. Many of these lots are rather small and located in areas destined for urban development. These lots are particularly difficult to maintain in their present form, and taking them down to more usable sizes is sometimes even more difficult. Special studies related to these areas must explore the most practical approach to their highest use, including the need for more stringent standards for re- view of lot splits. Single-Family Residential The existing and future distribution of single-family residen- tial uses can be partly interpreted from Table V-1. This table indicates that the largest number of developed single- family lots occurs in Octant NE-1 . This octant also has 42.4 vacant lots, most of which occur in residential categories . Growth potential, however, is greater in Octants NW-0 and SE-0 . Octant NW-0 has 1, 353 vacant lots principally in low- density residential categories. Four classifications of single-family residential density are proposed in this Plan. The principal uses found in each clas- sification are proposed as follows : Y Land uses shall be limited to single-family dwellings , acces- sory buildings and uses , home occupations , public parks and playgrounds , schools, libraries and board and care facilities . Minimum lot size for the creation of new lots shall be one- half acre. This is greater than the one-quarter to one-half acre recommended in the 1958 General Plan.. High Density Minimum lot size far the creation of new lots shall b SEVLT5 A7E NDTAPA(LAELE Moderate Density Minimum lot size for the creation of new lots within the Urban Services Area shall be one acre if served by sewers and 1, acres if not served by sewers . Low Density Minimum lot sizes within the Urban Services area shall range from 1z to 2z acres while the minimum lot size outside the Urban Services Area shall be 2, acres . Deter- mination of appropriate lot sizes should be based on such factors as slope of access road to the building site ; availability of services, especiall from the center of the community; g �Clfl6tTf� 17C�LUr1DN `� "�� C;3EMM�L RRA ANIEN�)M D'F neighboring lands; percolation and ' access roads to the building site.
