General provisions
1,302 rules that bind every district rather than one — sign regulations, parking, floodplain and the rest of the code’s citywide chapters.
Development standards for all permitted and conditionally permitted uses subject to this chapter.
This Form-Based Code is established as the primary means to implement the East Los Angeles Third Street Plan, which is applicable to the area shown on the Plan Map (Figure 1).
The sale of alcoholic beverages shall be limited to on-site consumption within the establishment boundaries only.
Parking shall be limited to motor vehicle parking lots exclusively and shall exclude vehicles over two tons rated capacity.
An addition of less than 500 square feet of new floor area to a landmark structure or structure located in a historic district may be administratively approved. Provided the gross square footage of a building or structure of a landmark or contributing property does not increase, a landmark or contributing property shall not be required to provide more parking spaces than the number of spaces existing on the site as of the effective date of designation.
Supportive housing shall be considered a residential use subject to only those restrictions that apply to other residential dwellings of the same type in the same zone. No parking shall be required for the supportive housing units, if the project is located within one-half mile of a public transit stop.
Transitional housing shall be considered a residential use subject to only those restrictions that apply to other residential dwellings of the same type in the same zone. All dwelling units, exclusive of any manager's unit(s), shall be restricted to lower income households.
Solid waste landfills, inert debris landfills, and facilities that convert solid waste to gas or energy that meet the requirements specified below shall require a Conditional Use Permit.
Conversion technology facilities (solid waste) shall provide completely enclosed buildings for all facility operations.
Junior accessory dwelling units subject to SPR. Small-scale solar energy systems structure-mounted permitted in all zones. Signs as specified in Chapter 22.114.
A minimum of 20 percent of the lot area not used for buildings and structures, such as setbacks and open space, shall be landscaped with a combination of trees, ground cover, shrubbery, planters, or flowers.
When adjacent to a residential use or Residential Zone, hours of operation shall be limited to 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., daily.
A residential use, accessory or otherwise, is prohibited on the same lot as a secondhand store, unless the residential use is within a mixed use development that has a secondhand store and otherwise complies with Section 22.140.360 (Mixed Use Developments).
The minimum lot size shall be one acre, unless the Commission or Hearing Officer approves a smaller lot. Total lot coverage by buildings shall not exceed 50 percent.
the notification radius shall be 1,000 feet from the exterior boundaries of the lots that propose to share a water well.
A single-family residence shall have a floor area of not less than 800 square feet.
A Conditional Use Permit (Chapter 22.158) application is required for the development of single-family residences on compact lots in Zones R-2, R-3, and R-4.
A Conditional Use Permit to authorize a wireless facility may be valid for a period of 15 years.
Guest occupancy is limited to two persons per bedroom, plus two, with a maximum occupancy of 12 guests per booking or reservation.
