The purpose of the NR neighborhood residential district is to provide a transition
from mixed-use areas to lower-density residential areas to promote the redevelopment
of urban communities. The NR district will provide a diversity of housing types at
densities higher than surrounding neighborhoods, complemented by parks, recreation
areas and civic uses essential to community gathering. The district will be pedestrian
in nature, with sidewalk-lined, tree-shaded streets naturally clamed by on-street
parking and an active environment. This intent and purpose are consistent with Future
Land Use Element Policy FLU8.3.1 of the Orange County Comprehensive Plan. These NR
neighborhood residential district regulations shall be administered by the county
zoning division, except that any non-zoning aspects of these regulations shall be
administered by the appropriate department or division.
