The purpose of the CALR zone is to provide limited single-family and multifamily residential
use, at a density of four units per acre. The CALR zone allows multifamily use, by
means of townhouses or similar multifamily design options incorporating zero lot line
standards, clustering options to safeguard the public's interest in the preservation
and conservation of natural areas, planned unit development design options offering
flexibility for critical area protection or other development alternatives set forth
in section 21.17.050(4). Specific natural areas have been classified as ecologically sensitive and hazardous
and efforts to protect these areas and their functions and values are essential while
also allowing for reasonable use of public and private property.
