Location: Site shall be located fully in either the Residential—Hillside (RH) or the Residential—Single-Family District (R-1). B. Parcel Map: A parcel map for an urban lot split shall be ministerially approved as set forth in this Section if the City determines that the parcel map meets the requirements of this Section and Government Code Section 66411.7. A lot created through a parcel map for an urban lot split is limited to development of up to two (2) dwelling units on the lot. The units may include an SB 9 Project, Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit(s), and Accessory Dwelling Unit(s) as authorized under Article 37 of the Zoning Code, or some combination thereof that does not result in more than two (2) dwelling units on the lot. C. Eligibility: All parcel maps for urban lot splits must comply with the following provisions and requirements: 1. The site shall be located fully in either the Residential—Hillside (RH) or the Residential—Single-Family District (R-1). 2. The parcel map shall subdivide an existing parcel to create no more than two (2) new lots of approximately equal lot area provided that one (1) lot shall not be smaller than forty percent (40%) of the lot area of the original parcel proposed for the subdivision.. 3. The parcel map conforms to the applicable objective zoning standards (excepting lot width and frontage), subdivision standards, and objective design review standards, including those objective lot standards identified in this Section, and objective requirements of the Subdivision Map Act (commencing with Government Code Section 66410), except as otherwise expressly provided in Government Code Section 66411.7 as may be amended from time to time (“standard”); provided however, that the City shall waive or modify any standard if the standard would have the effect of physically precluding the construction of two (2) units on either of the resulting lots or would result in a unit of less than eight hundred (800) square feet. Any modifications of development standards shall be the minimum modification necessary to avoid physically precluding two (2) units of eight hundred (800) square feet on each lot. Notwithstanding, required rear and side yard setbacks shall equal four (4) feet, except that no setback shall be required for an existing legally created structure or a new structure constructed in the same location and to the same dimensions as an existing legally created structure.
