   .010   Purpose. The purpose of this chapter is to define allowable land uses and property development standards, including intensity of development for the open space and public recreational zones in order to produce healthy, safe and attractive neighborhoods within the Mountain Park, consistent with the policy direction in the Anaheim General Plan. The intent of each of the public and special-purpose zones is described below.
   .020   Intent of Individual Zones.
      .0201   OSMP - Open Space Mountain Park Zone. The intent of the OSMP Zone is to protect and preserve open space for the preservation of natural resources, for the conservation and managed production of other resources, for outdoor recreation and education and for public health and safety. This zone is intended to be applied to permanent easements, public and semi-public land. This zone implements the open space designation in the General Plan.
      .0202   PRMP - Public Recreational Mountain Park Zone. The intent of the PRMP Zone is to establish for the benefit of the health, safety and general welfare of the citizens of Anaheim and its visitors, a zone to preserve, regulate and control the orderly use and enjoyment of City-owned properties and facilities and adjacent private property. Property within the purview of the Public Recreational zone includes City-owned property, whether the same is exclusively occupied by the City or is used by others on the basis of some agreement with or concession by the City. This zone implements the institutional land use designation in the General Plan.
