Fresno, CA...RMX Zoning??

Question

Hey Everyone,

So, I'm looking into a deal that's in Fresno, CA and the property is currently listed as a single family, however; there is a separate detached studio unit which has a kitchen and bathroom. The listing details mention the property is zoned as RMX. I'm not from the Fresno area and don't know much about the zoning over there. Any Fresno locals out there who know what RMX zoning is?

Thanks!!

Joe

Hi Joseph - according to the Fresno Citywide Development Code - RMX is "Regional Mixed Use"

RMX Regional Mixed-Use. The RMX district is intended to support regional retail and mixed-use development in large-scale activity centers outside of Downtown, as identified by the General Plan. It accommodates urban-scale mixed-use development that serve residents and businesses of the region at large. Medium-scale retail, housing, office, civic and entertainment uses, and shopping malls with large format or “big-box” retail are allowed, as are supporting uses such as gas stations, hotels, and residential in mixed-use or single-use buildings. Development and design standards will create a pedestrian orientation within centers and along major corridors, with parking located on the side or rear of, or within, major structures.
