a. The intent of the forest zones is to protect and preserve the natural environment of those areas of the City that are characterized by mountainous, forest or naturalistic land, and to permit development compatible to the preservation of these areas. b. The objectives in establishing the forest zones are: a. To promote the use of the land for forest, fish and wildlife and to facilitate the conservation of the natural resources, vegetation and attractions; b. To reduce the hazards of flood and fire;
c. To prevent sanitation and pollution problems and protect the watershed; d. To provide areas for private and public recreation ; and e. To provide areas for homes, summer homes, and summer camp sites. c. Conservation subdivisions that preserve open space and reduce environmental
disturbance are encouraged and may be approved through subdivision review.
The Forest Zones are intended primarily to support resource-based uses such as forestry, watershed protection, habitat preservation, and low-impact recreation. Residential development is allowed at low densities where it can occur without compromising these primary resource values. Sec 104-9-2 (Reserved)
