Description: Since the GIS data was developed for planning purposes and use in publication of maps and/or database creation, the data is for illustrative purpose only and is not suitable for parcel specific decision making.
Therefore, the GIS data presented herein are approximations and further land development determination is at the discretion of the PRMD planning staff which may require a parcel specific site review (to draw parcel specific conclusions).
The Historic District (HD) zoning combining district dataset represents protected structures, sites and areas that are remainders of past eras, events and persons important in local, state or national history, or which provide significant examples of architectural styles of the past, or which are unique and irreplaceable assets to the county and its communities. (Ord. No. 4643, 1993.) To note, HD may apply to all or a portion of a parcel.
*In conformance with the open space and public safety elements of the general plan, the county of Sonoma declares that HD, Article 68, of Zoning Regulations Chapter 26 constitute its open space zoning pursuant to Government Code Section 65910. Section 26-02-020 Composition of zoning ordinance, Ordinance Number 4643, 1993. (Refer to related resources below)
