RESIDENTIAL LAND USE<br />

The <strong>City</strong> should provide for a wide range <strong>of</strong> housing types, styles and densities. A city with<br />

these characteristics insures that housing opportunities are made available for all socioeconomic<br />

levels.<br />

Goals<br />

LU 2.7A - Provide for the distribution <strong>of</strong> varying residential densities throughout the<br />

community to ensure that residential development reflects various income and lifestyle<br />

options.<br />

LU 2.7B - Residential densities shall be moderately increased to encourage more compact<br />

development consistent with smart growth design principles.<br />

LU 2.7C - Preserve existing neighborhoods and create strong new neighborhoods that are<br />

well designed and maintained.<br />

LU 2.7D - Promote integration <strong>of</strong> affordable housing units toward inclusionary development <strong>of</strong><br />

neighborhoods with mixed income levels.<br />

Policies<br />

LU 2.7.1<br />

Establish the following residential densities:<br />

(b)<br />

(c)<br />

Suburban Residential (1-4 dwelling units per gross acre) – The Suburban<br />

Residential density designation is intended for single-family detached<br />

residential development. The designation is intended to accommodate<br />

larger residential parcels, which generally range from 7,500 square feet<br />

to one-acre in size.<br />

Low Density Residential (4.1-8 dwelling units per gross acre) – The Low<br />

Density Residential designation is intended for single-family detached<br />

residential development, attached single family, and low density multifamily<br />

uses. The Low Density Residential designation is the predominant<br />

residential designation in the <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Reedley</strong>. This land use category<br />

accommodates the typical residential subdivision in <strong>Reedley</strong>.<br />

Medium Density Residential (8.1-20 dwelling units per gross acre) – The<br />

Medium Density Residential designation is intended for single-family or<br />

multiple-family development. Medium density development shall be<br />

located near or adjacent to collector or arterial intersection and close to<br />

shopping and employment opportunities. Multiple family developments<br />

may serve as a transition from commercial to single family residential<br />

neighborhoods.<br />

High Density Residential (20.1-30 dwelling units per gross acre) – High<br />

Density is intended for multiple-family development including multi-story<br />

condominium or apartment developments.<br />
