The purpose of the Land Use and Community Character Element is twofold. First, it includes policies establishing land use designations that identify the type and intensity of uses permissible in unincorporated areas, shown on the Land Use Diagram. Second, it includes a series of goals and policies identifying the County's philosophy for future change, development, and natural resource protection, with a focus on preserving agricultural, rural, and open space lands while directing growth to cities and unincorporated communities.
