*RR-5 Designation: Minimum lot size is 5 acres: RR (Residential Ranchette) Inland area. The RR zone is applied within the Inland area within Urban, Inner-Rural and Existing Developed Rural Neighborhood area as designated on the Comprehensive Plan maps where low density residential and agricultural uses are appropriate. The intent of the RR zone to preserve the character of an area and to minimize the services required by providing for low density residential development. Paperwork from 1951 which predates permit history seems to indicate the property has on record 6 legal non-conforming cottages and a main house. One or more of the cottages may date back to the 1880’s. There is some evidence pointing to the cottages being used to house the upper management for the narrow-gauge railway that ran through town; and even as a spillover from the old Hotel Los Olivos that burned down at the turn of the Century. • • • • • • • • •
