Sec. 656.372. - Purpose.

The policies contained in the Future Land Use Element of the 2010 Comprehensive Plan provide that the Planning and Development Department shall establish criteria to identify those residential enclaves surrounded by nonresidential uses which should be protected from premature fragmentation by intrusive nonresidential uses. Since such residential enclave areas were often designated for nonresidential use on the Future Land Use Map series of the 2010 Comprehensive Plan, they were zoned for nonresidential use. In order to provide protection for residential enclaves which are located within nonresidential zoning districts, a procedure for designating appropriate residential enclaves and related overlay zoning is being established.
