Accordingly, the county’s Future Land <br />Use Map residential designations vary in density from 1 unit per acre to 10 units per acre. All of this residentially <br />designated land is located within the Urban Service Area where adequate infrastructure is available to accommodate a <br />wide variety of housing types, including mobile homes, farmworker housing, housing for very low-, low-, and moderate- <br />income households, and group homes and foster care facilities. As structured, the county’s land use designations <br />accommodate housing units with a wide range of costs and physical characteristics (lot sizes, setbacks, and land use <br />mixes). These future land use map designations are situated to allow for residential development that has: <br />1. Proximity to public transportation, employment centers, recreational facilities, and community services such as <br />shopping, personal services, schools, daycare facilities, and health care facilities; and <br />2. Compatibility with adjacent land uses and existing neighborhoods. <br />The County’s Residential Land Use Districts <br />PAGE 87
