THE PEOPLE OF CENTRAL POINT DO ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

feet in favor of a distance approved by the fire district that the use of the standard was intended to
satisfy.
SECTION 2. Chapter 17.57, (Exhibit "B") changes the side yard setback requirements for fences
which are not the same for buildings and which should be allowed on the property line.

requirement for accessory building, deferring instead to the building code.
SECTION 4. Chapter 17.65, (Exhibit "D") corrects an error to the zoning regulations for multifamily
and senior housing so that the maximum density is not limited by the land area per unit.
SECTION 5. Chapter 17.77, (Exhibit "E") adds Accessory Dwelling Units to the R -L, Residential Low -
Density District which has historically allowed guesthouses already. Standards for ADUs are referenced
to Chapter 17.77.
