The purpose of the Multiple Use Zone is to establish areas that are open and generally undeveloped. The Zone is designed to protect open space and resources by reducing unreasonable requirements for public utilities and services. MU Zones encourage multiple use/sustained yield activities including grazing, watershed restoration, mining and recreation. This Zone supports avoidance - minimization - mitigation protocols to prevent excessive damage to watersheds, water sources, soils, vegetation and land health from permitted activities. It is intended to promote the sustainable health, safety, welfare, custom, culture, traditional use, convenience, order and prosperity of the inhabitants of the county.
