ORDINANCE NO. 1238
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA
VISTA, AMENDING SUBSECTIONS A, B, C AND G OF SECTION
33.504 OF THE CHULA VISTA CITY CODE, REGULATING THE
R-2 ZONE
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does ordain as
SECTION I: That subsections A, B, C and G of Section 33.504
.e Chula Vista City Code be, and the same are hereby amended to
'as follows:
Sec. 33.504.
R-2 One and Two-Family Residence Zone.
A. Purpose and Intent. The basic use permitted in the
R-2 Zone is the lowest density of multiple dwelling units,
namely the duplex. It is the purpose of the City Council
to provide in this zone a density level commensurate with
the density allowable under the most restrictive multiple
family zone but to retain the fundamental characteristics
to be found in the R-I Zone, i.e., private yards and patios,
individual recreational facilities, privately maintained
open space and privacy and self-containment of dwelling
units. In order to provide these characteristics, the
Council hereby establishes a wider range of principal
permitted uses to create greater diversity and flexibility
of housing concepts; to extend the single-family private
dwelling unit amenities to all economic levels; to provide
a broader range of lot sizes and to satisfy the full
variety of tastes, needs and desires in housing.
It is the full intent of the City Council to authorize
as principal permitted uses, in addition to the duplex or
two-family dwe'lling units on a single lot, two (2) single
family attached dwelling units on two contiguous lots and
dwelling groups as provided in this chapter. The attached
single-family dwelling unit concept would permit the re-
duction of lot sizes to 3,000 square feet and the sale of
individual attached single-family dwelling units construc-
tion on such lots to separate ownerships.
Authorization for this latter housing concept for either
new construction or existing duplex units would require
filing of a subdivision or parcel map and provision for
the amenities delineated herein as normally associated
with the single family housing concept to be found in the
R-I zone. In addition to site plan and architectural re-
view, housing floor plans and basic construction designs
must be presented for the approval of the Planning Commis-
sion to insure the creation of an overall community en-
vironment similar to the R-I zone. The owners and devel-
opers applying for authorization for said attached'single-
family dwelling units in the R-2 zone must also provide
covenants, conditions and restrictions to insure compat-
ibility in the maintenance, repair or remodeling of the
attached dwelling units held under separate ownership.
Said deed restrictions shall be subject to the approval

of the Planning Commission and must be recorded concurrently
with the recordation of the final subdivision map or parcel
map. The Commission may require the establishment of a
maintenance district incorporating said conditions and obli-
gations.
B. Principal Permitted Uses. The following are the
principal permitted uses in an R-2 zone:
1. One single-family dwelling on any lot.
2. One duplex or two-family dwelling on any lot.
3. Attached single-family dwelling units.
4. Dwelling groups, subject to the provisions of
subsection 13 of Section 33.901 A.
5. Other accessory uses and accessory buildings
customarily appurtenant to a permitted use, subject
to the requirements of subsection 1 of Section 33.
901 A.
6. Foster homes or day nurseries, not to exceed
three (3) children, not members of the family.
C. Aocessory Uses. The following are the accessory uses
permitted in an R-2 zone.
1. Rooming and boarding of not more than two (2)
persons per dwelling unit, provided off-street
parking space is available for any automobile owned
or operated by any boarder or roomer, in addition
to any space required for the principal residents
of the dwelling.
2. Customary incidental home occupations, subject
to the provisions of Section 13.1314.
3. Temporary tract offices and tract signs subject
to the provisions of subsections 28 and 31 of Sec-
tion 33.901 A.
G. Area, Lot Width and Yard Requirements.
1. Minimum Requirements. The following minimum
dimensions shall be observed; provided, however,
that such dimensions may be modified by the grant-
ing of a conditional use permit. The minimum re-

2. Standards for Application. The minimum dimen-
sions included in the R-2-T classification are
applicable only to the attached single-family dwell-
