LAND USE ELEMENT <br />Residential <br />The Land Use Plan provides for three distinct residential land use designations. <br />Residential development is also permitted in two other designations: District <br />Center and Urban Neighborhood. The Santa Ana Land Use Plan includes the <br />following residential land use designations: <br />The Low Density Residential (LR-7) designation applies to those areas of <br />the City which are developed with lower density residential land uses. The <br />allowable maximum development intensity is 7 units per acre. Development <br />in this category is characterized primarily by single-family homes. This <br />designation applies to a large proportion of the City 6 64.6 6,46" acres) <br />representing 47 percent of the City's total land area. <br />The Low-Medium Density Residential (LMR-11) designation applies to <br />those sections of the City which are developed with residential uses at <br />permitted densities of tip to 1 I units per acre. The land area included in this <br />designation is approximately 433.7 acres. The great majority of the land <br />designated as Low-Medium Density Residential is located in the westerly <br />portion of the City, north and south of First Street. Properties with this <br />designation are typically characterized by mobile home parks, a mixture of <br />duplexes and single family residences, or small lot subdivisions. <br />The Medium Density Residential (MR-15) designation applies to those <br />sections of the City which are developed with residential uses at densities of <br />up to 15 units per acre. Development in this designation is characterized by <br />duplexes, apartments, or a combination of both. A total of 385.3 acres is <br />designated as Medium Density Residential. The designation applies to areas <br />located in the vicinity of downtown, areas north and south of MacArthur <br />Boulevard, and in other areas where there are established multiple-family <br />development projects. <br />CITY OF SANTA ANA GENERAL PLAN <br />75A-15 <br />A-19 <br />fti
