§ 18.50.010. Intent of classification.  


Latest version.
  • A.

    The intent of this classification is to provide areas consistent with the general plan that provide sites suitable to accommodate public and closely related privately owned quasi-public facilities which provide governmental or state-mandated services to the general public.

    B.

    Uses permitted under this classification in the nonurban areas designated by the general plan designations agricultural resource or agriculture, watershed and open space shall be restricted to: public uses existing at the time of the date of adoption of the ordinance codified in this chapter and the expansion thereof; and uses which are related to public agency programs implementing government-mandates.

    C.

    Lands eligible for public lands zoning should have the following characteristics to insure compatibility with existing and future land uses:

    1.

    Services (water and sewer) from public utilities are readily available, unless on-site water supply and sewage disposal are available and adequate.

    2.

    The lands to be zoned PL should be located where the district would not be in conflict with or detrimental to existing legal uses on adjacent lands.
