(A) Multiple use. To establish areas in mountain, hillside, canyon, mountain valley, desert and other open and generally undeveloped lands where human habitation would be limited in order to protect land and open space resources; to reduce unreasonable requirements for public utility and service expenditures through uneconomic and un-wise dispersal of population; to encourage use of the land, where appropriate, for forestry, grazing, agriculture, mining, wildlife habitat and recreation; to avoid excessive damage to watersheds, water pollution, soil erosion, danger from brush land fires, damage to grazing, livestock raising and to wildlife values; and, to promote the health, safety, convenience, order, prosperity and general welfare of the inhabitants of the community.
(B) Agricultural. To promote and preserve, in appropriate areas, conditions favorable to agriculture and to maintain greenbelt open spaces. Such districts are intended to include activities normally and necessarily related to the conduct of agricultural production and to provide protection from the intrusion of uses adverse to the continuance of agricultural activity.
(C) rural residential. To promote and preserve, in appropriate areas, conditions favorable to large-lot family life, the keeping of limited numbers of animals and fowl, and reduced requirements for public utilities. These districts are intended to be primarily residential in character and protected from encroachment by commercial and industrial uses.
