(Prior code § 9205.07; Ord. 857 § 4, 1994)
§ 18.20.020 Intent and purpose.

§ 18.20.030 Applicability-Criteria.
A.
The public facilities zone is a land use classification which, in part, assists in the implementation of the community facilities element of the general plan. It is a zone classification designed to be applied on selective areas of the community most appropriately located for public and public oriented institutional activities.
B.
Application of the public facilities zone must identify and define those specific public and/or public oriented institutional uses, facilities and agencies that preserve and maintain civic integrity and public services, and must be fully protected from the encroachment of land uses and development which may tend to usurp, deteriorate or destroy its function and purpose.
C.
Uses of land and development which do not qualify and which are not specifically permitted in the public facilities zone are expressly prohibited.
