GENERAL PLAN UPDATE

MAPPING

The General Plan is comprised of the General Plan Text and the following maps:

1.       Land Use Zoning District Maps

These maps are published using the Assessor Parcels as the base map. They show the designated land use zoning district for each parcel. Three overlay districts – Additional Agriculture, Agricultural Preserve, and the Sign Control – are also shown on these maps as a suffixes to the land use zoning district.

 

Click here for an index to locate the correct map for each community. Yellow-shaded parcels on these maps indicates parcels where the land use designation has been changed in the General Plan Update process. These changes could be for any of the following actions taken by the County in the update process:

  • Removed all obsolete zoning "prefixes" and "suffixes";
  • Revised all residential land use designations into a standardized list of minimum lot sizes for the Agriculture, Rural Living, and Single Family Residential designations;
  • Changed all Planned Development (PD) designations to Specific Development (SD) with either a residential or commercial suffix;
  • Changed land use zoning district designations in certain small unincorporated pockets in the SOI of the Cities of Chino and Montclair to establish a more consistent land use pattern;
  • Changed land use zoning district designations in the West Fontana and Mentone areas where "hot spot" analyses were conducted to establish a more consistent land use pattern and to achieve greater consistency with the neighboring cities pre-zoning; and
  • Made limited land use changes to specific properties in Pinon Hills, Muscoy, Green Valley Lake, Lucerne Valley, Homestead Valley, Apple Valley, Newberry Springs, Ludlow and Hesperia.

2.       Hazard Overlay Maps

These maps are published using the street network as the base maps because the delineations of the various hazards are not intended to be parcel specific. The hazards included on these maps include airport safety, dam inundation, fire, flood, and noise.

 

Click here for an index to locate the correct map for each community. If a particular community is not listed, there are no hazards in the area.

3.       Geologic Hazard Overlay Maps

These maps are published using the street network as the base maps because the delineations of the various hazards are not intended to be parcel specific. The hazards included on these maps include state and county designated earthquake fault zones, generalized landslide susceptibility, generalized liquefaction susceptibility, and rockfall/debris-flow hazard areas.

 

Click here for an index to locate the correct map for each community. If a particular community is not listed, there are no geologic hazards in the area.

4.       Circulation Maps

These maps show the road designations for all roads with the following classifications throughout the county: Freeway, Major Arterial Highway, Major Divided Highway, Major Highway, Secondary Highway, Controlled/Limited Access Collector, Mountain Major Highway And Mountain Secondary Highway.

5.       Resource Overlay Maps

These maps show various natural resources that have been mapped throughout the county. They include the following:

a.       Biotic Resources Overlay Map

These maps are published using the street network as the base maps because the delineations of the various resources are not intended to be parcel specific. The resources included on these maps to date include the Desert Tortoise, the Mojave Ground Squirrel, the Bald Eagle, the Southern Rubber Boa and the Delhi Flower-Loving Sand Fly.

d.       Paleontologic Resources Sensitivity Overlay Map

          (Not available yet)

These maps have not been prepared electronically to date. Once the digitized maps are complete, they will be published using the street network as the base maps because the delineations of the resource sensitivity are not intended to be parcel specific.

 

Click here (when available) to access the map.

e.       Mineral Resources Overlay Maps

          (Not available yet)

These maps have not been prepared electronically to date. Once the digitized maps are complete, they will be published using the street network as the base maps because the delineations of the resource locations are not intended to be parcel specific.
