The General Plan applies to the unincorporated areas of the County. California State law requires each jurisdiction to adopt a General plan to guide physical development. The General Plan establishes County policy, and identifies planned land uses and infrastructure. Note: The text arrangement of files in these appendices may differ slightly from that of the printed documents.
