17.16.010 Purpose and intent of public and quasi-public zones. ¶

The purpose and intent of the public and quasi-public zones are as follows:

A. O--Open Space, Recreation, and Public Facilities Zone. The purpose of the open space, recreation, and public facilities (O) zone is to provide for sufficient space to accommodate the community’s need for a wide range of public uses, such as parks, playgrounds, cultural and educational facilities, and infrastructure systems; to protect lands whose primary purpose is to remain in open space such as wildlife sanctuaries, wetlands, reservoirs, and agriculture; and to prevent development of areas which are environmentally sensitive, such as floodplains and geologically hazardous sites. The O zone implements the public (PUB), parks (P), and ponding basin (PB) land use designations in the general plan. B. UR--Urban Reserve Zone. The purpose of the urban reserve (UR) zone is to preserve land for agriculture; serve as a holding zone for future urban development; and prevent the encroachment of urban uses or incompatible agriculturally related uses. The UR zone implements the urban reserve (UR) land use designation in the general plan.

(Ord. 24-01 §2(Exh. A-1)).
