tate the adequate provision for transportation, water, sewerage,
schools , parks , roads, and other public facilities and improve-
ments ; and to establish the most beneficial and convenient re-
lationships among the residential, commercial, industrial, ag-
ricultural, recreational, and undeveloped areas , having regard
to their suitability for the various uses appropriate to each
of them and their potentiality for such uses , as indicated by
existing conditions and trends in population, in the direction
and manner of the uses of land, in building development , and
in economic activity.

Sec . 8118 - ADOPTION OF ZONING MAPS
Sec. 8118-1 - Findings - The Board of Supervisors of the
County of Ventura does hereby make the following findings :
(a) Prior to the enactment of the ordinance adding this
section to the Ventura County Ordinance Code , a zone
classification has been established on all land in the
unincorporated area of the County of Ventura. Said
comprehensive zoning was effected by ordinances adopt-
ing zoning maps which were added to this Code as Sec-
tion 8117 through Section 8117-867, inclusive .
(b ) The Assessor of the County of Ventura maintains a large
( number of maps showing all parcels of land in the unin-
297 OC-1
corporated area of the County of Ventura. Said maps are
maintained in accordance with the provisions of Chapter
6 , Part 2 , Division 1 of the Revenue and Taxation Code .
(c) Using the Assessor' s maps as the basis maps and compil-
ing the zoning data on said basis maps will result in
substantial savings to County taxpayers because it
eliminates the necessity of maintaining two map systems .
(d) The zoning data shown on the adopted zoning maps have
been graphically delineated on the basis maps . Said
recompiled and recodified maps consist of Books 1
through 900 inclusive and shall hereinafter be referred
to as "Ventura County Zoning Maps , Second Recodifica-
tion. "
Sec. 8118-2 - Adoption of New Zoning Maps - "Ventura County
Zoning Maps , Second Recodification'T is hereby adopted by re-
ference as the official zoning maps for the unincorporated
area of the County of Ventura. The Board hereby declares
that adoption of "Ventura County Zoning Maps , Second Recodi-
fication" does not change the zone classification of any land,
and in the event of any error in the transmission of the zoning
data from the old zoning maps to the new second recodification
zoning maps , the zone classification of the land as shown on
the old zoning maps shall prevail, and the new second recod-
ification zoning maps shall be changed to correct the error.
Three copies of the "Ventura County Zoning Maps , Second Re-
codification" are on file in the office of the Clerk of the
Board of Supervisors . All zoning maps adopted by reference
by this section shall be a part of this Article .
Sec. 8118-2 . 1 - Legal Validity - In the event that a court
of competent jurisdiction should decree or adjudge that the
adoption of the new zoning maps as provided in sections
8118 through 8118-2 inclusive , is invalid, the old zoning
maps which existed prior to the adoption of these sections
are hereby reinstated as the official zoning maps of the
County of Ventura.

ARTICLE 23
INDUSTRIAL DISTRICTS
Sec. 8141-0 - INDUSTRIAL DISTRICTS EXPLAINED
Sec. 8141-0 . 1 - Effectuation - The provisions of this ordin-
ance shall become effective thirty (30) days following the
prescribed public hearings resulting in adoption of ordin-
ances by the Board of Supervisors which reclassify existing
manufacturing zoned lands to industrial districts ;
Sec. 8141-0 . 2 - Purpose - The explanation contained herein is
intended to serve as a guide for understanding and interpret-
ing the provisions of the industrial regulations in order to
provide consistent and equitable application and enforcement ;
Sec. 8141-0.3 - Industrial Regulations Established - The three industrial
districts established in this Article are as follows: M-1, Industrial Park
District; M-2, Limited Industrial District; and M-3, General Industrial
District. For each district, there is a statement of purpose, a generalized
description of the different types of uses permitted, and a designation of
property development and operational performance standards. Industrial uses
in all districts are subject to established review procedures including
approval of a Development Plan or Conditional Use Permit, as appropriate,
and subsequent issuance of a Zoning Clearance. A Development Plan shall be
processed as a discretionary administrative permit pursuant to Article 43;
(AM. ORD. 3057-9/16/75-AM. ORD. 3638-2/22/83)
Sec. 8141-0 .4 - Factors Considered in Writing the Ordinance -
The following factors are basic considerations in the design
of the industrial districts :
Sec . 8141-0 .4. 1 - The need for a clear definition of what
development and operational performance standards are
expected in each district ;
Sec. 8141-0 .4. 2 - The need for a clear definition of what
means of protection are afforded industrial developers and
operators , surrounding urban uses , and the general public ;
Sec. 8141-0 .4. 3 - The need for flexibility to permit adapt-
ability to changes in industrial modes of operation and
the most expeditious processing of industrial location
matters ;
434 0C-2
Sec. 8141-0 . 4.4 - The recognition that a given activity can
operate in any number of ways and produce any degree of
operational by-products such as smoke , glare , and odor;
Sec . 8141-0 .4. 5 - The recognition that the financial resources
and management outlook of firms vary considerably and that a
choice should be given in site selection to meet a variety
of needs .
Sec. 8141-0 .5 - Framework of the Ordinance - The M-1 District
is designed as an operative industrial park area where a broad
range of uses is permitted if-such firms wish to abide by the
strict site development and operational performance standards .
The M-2 District contains the same uses as the M-1 District
plus other quasi-industrial and service commercial activities .
The standards for the district are designed to permit consider-
able latitude in site utilization while still observing rea-
sonable performance levels . The basic difference between the
districts , in addition to some differences in uses , is the
permitted mode of operation of the activity in site use and
operational performance for conceivably the same type of
activity. The M-3 District is designed to be exclusively
for manufacturing and related activities . Certain high per-
formance , precision activities must show at the time of public
hearing that the normally accepted operational privileges ex-
pected to occur in the M-3 District will not adversely affect
their operations . Quasi-industrial and service commercial
uses must use the same hearing procedure where necessary to
preserve the integrity of the M-3 properties . Unusually
heavy uses such as refineries , rendering plants , and steel
mills are also required to use the hearing procedure for
locational purposes ;
Sec. 8141-0 . 6 - Categories of Uses Explained - Principally
Permitted Uses refer to the predominant activity on a site in
relation to the amount of area displaced relative to other
uses or in terms of the most outwardly appearing . use of the
site . The fact that a minor operation on a site is one nor-
mally considered properly located in a district having less
restrictive performance requirements does not preclude its
inclusion among the operations of a permitted use on a site
requiring more restrictive levels of performance , provided
such latter levels of performance are met .
• • Accessory uses are those which are customarily appurtenant
to a principally or conditionally permitted use and constitute
normally associated activities .
Conditionally Permitted Uses are legitimate uses in a district
which are reviewed at the time of public hearing primarily as
to the location proposed for the use and its relationship to
surrounding uses and the area in general . A Conditionally
435 OC-1
Permitted Use may be denied the approval of a particular lo-
cation because the use is not compatible with surrounding
uses at that location, or its location as proposed may be
conditioned to the extent necessary to assure compatibility
and acceptance of the use among other uses permitted in a
district . It is not the intent in terming conditional uses
such to imply transiency or temporary type of operation.
To this extent then, operational time limits shall not be
imposed, except in the case of normal types of temporary uses
or certain mining or other natural resource depletion types
of uses ;
Sec. 8141-0 .7 - Location and Classification of Uses - Generalized
use descriptions illustrative of the types of uses permitted
in each district are used so as to account for unforeseen uses
and to tailor the location of a use into the district that most
closely matches its actual operational characteristics . The
key factor is how the firm intends to conduct its operations
so as to meet the levels of performance and development re-
quired of the district .
The types of uses described in each district are illustrative
of those permitted in the district and are not intended to be
exclusive. In determining the proper district for a use of
undetermined classification, notice must be taken of the
statement of purpose , the character of uses described, and
the performance and development standards required of each
district. There are procedures for classifying uses where
uncertainty exists due to the nature of the operation.
There are also provisions permitting the movement of normally
accepted M-3 operations to the M-2 District , if acceptable
at the time of conditional use hearing. Care also must be
taken in observing the intent of the exclusive use provisions
of the M-3 District so as to preserve the operational integrity
of the district ;
Sec . 8141-0 . 8 - Flexibility of the Regulations - The regulations
of the industrial districts are designed to provide a maxi-
mum degree of flexibility consistent with the type of develop-
ment desired for the area and the type of protection from
zoning desired by industry. Wherever possible within these
regulations , certain administrative descretionary powers have
been established to permit decisions to be made on the admini-
strative level for good cause , thus preventing unnecessary
delays and hardships of development . The provisions for inter-
pretation and judgment are submitted in a cooperative effort
for good industrial development , where the key to enforcement
of these proviions is the good faith and intentions of the
parties involved. Nothing in these regulations shall preclude
436 OC-1
their diligent enforcement in cases of gross violations or
any other acts which are contrary to the concepts , approach,
or intent of these regulations .
Sec . 8141-1 - INDUSTRIAL PARK (M-1) DISTRICT -(AM.ORD. 3553-7/21/81)
Sec . 8141-1. 1 - Purpose of the District - The purpose of the
M-1 , Industrial Park District, is to provide areas suitable
for the development and protection of a broad range of indus-
trial activities whose operations are conducted on a high
level of site development and operational performance . In
illustrating types of permitted uses , latitude is given to
encompass those activities that clearly desire to conduct
business in an atmosphere of a prestige location and to per-
mit flexibility for operations to adjust to new manufacturing
requirements consistent with accepted levels of performance.
The standards required for the M-1 District would permit such
areas to harmonize effectively with other types of community
development and to be clearly visible from main transportation
routes ;
Sec. 8141-1 . 2 - Principally Permitted Uses - The description of
Principally Permitted Uses is illustrative of the types of uses
which shall be permitted in the M-1 District and, is not intend-

ARTICLE 39
ADDED BY ORD. 3603 = 7/6/82
GENERAL PROVISIONS :
LIMITATIONS ON ISSUANCE OF
BUILDING PERMITS TO PROTECT AIR QUALITY
Sec. 8159-0 - PURPOSE - The purpose of this Article is to
protect the health, safety and general welfare of present
and future residents of Ventura County against the adverse
effects of poor air quality attributable to population
related emissions .
Sec. 8159-1 - FINDINGS - The Ventura County Board of Super-
visors, by adopting the Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP)

the following findings:
(a) There is a direct relationship between the
quality of the County' s air and the health,
safety and welfare of the County' s residents ;
and
(b ) The quality of the County' s air has deteriorated
to the point where it frequently fails to meet
state and federal ambient air quality
standards designed to protect health, safety and
welfare ; and
(c) Failure to meet such state and federal standards
in the County results in aggravation of the
illness of persons suffering from asthma or
chronic lung disease , an increase in the work
of breathing for many healthy persons , impairment
of the performance of persons engaged in strenuous
activities , and significant health care costs
attributable to air quality related health
problems , and air pollution damage to crops
amounting to millions of dollars annually; and
(d ) There is a direct measurable relationship between
population growth and emissions which contribute
to the deterioration of air quality in the County;
and
(e ) The AQMP has identified all reasonably available
control measures for the control of emissions
in the Ojai Valley (as defined in this Article )
and has established the maximum rate of population
501-1 OC-1
increase which can be accommodated therein,
assuming the implementation of all such reason-
ably available control measures , without pre-
cluding ultimate compliance within such area
with the state and federal ambient air quality
standards ; and
( f) Regulation of population growth in the Ojai
Valley in accordance with the AQMP, in addition
to the implementation of all other reasonably
available control measures for the control of
emissions , is necessary in order to ensure
compliance with federal ambient air quality
standards and to protect adequately the public
health, safety and welfare .
Sec. 8159-2 - ALL BUILDING PERMITS SUBJECT TO THIS ARTICLE -
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Code or of
any other ordinance or resolution of this County hereto-
fore or hereafter enacted , all building permits are

ported permit issued in violation of this Article shall
be null and void . The provisions of this Article are in
addition to, and not in limitation of , any other applicable
requirements and restrictions which may be imposed with
respect to such permits.
Sec . 8159-3 - DEFINITIONS - As used in this Article, the
following terms shall have the meanings set forth in this
Section:
( a) Residential Permit - This term means a building
permit for either the construction of a new
dwelling unit (as opposed to the repair,

relating to the installation of an additional
mobilehome , the mobilehome either has been or
still could be installed .
501-2 OC-1
•
( c ) AQMP - This term means the Air Quality Manage-
ment Plan for Ventura •County as amended from
time to time . The references in this Article
to Tables IX-3 and IX-4 of the AQMP are to
the tables by that number appearing in the
version of the AQMP adopted March 23 , 1982,
or, in the event that such tables are amended
by later amendments to the AQMP, then to the
most recent version of such tables however
numbered.
(d ) Ojai Valley - This term means the "subarea"

(e ) Aggregate Population Increase - This term
means , for any given point in time , the aggre-

Ojai Valley for which there are Outstanding
Residential Permits if each of such units and
mobilehomes had been built or installed and
occupied to the applicable average density
indicated in Table IX-4 of the AQMP.
( f) Maximum Permissible Population Increase - This
term means , for any given point in time, the
aggregate number of additional residents who
would have been added to the population of
the Ojai Valley since January 1 , 1980 , if such
population increase had equaled the population
increase projected for such area by Table IX-3
of the AQMP for the period commencing on
January 1 , 1980 , and ending at the conclusion
of the current calendar year.
(g ) Developable Lot - This term means a lot for
which a current zoning clearance certificate
for residential use has been issued .
Sec . 8159-4 - LIMITATIONS ON ISSUANCE OF RESIDENTIAL PERMITS -
No Residential Permit may be issued for the unincorporated
portion of the Ojai Valley if the issuance of such permit
would cause the Aggregate Population Increase for the
whole of such area ( including both the incorporated
and unincorporated portions thereof ) to exceed the Maximum
Permissible Population Increase for such area . A Residential
Permit respecting a lot located within the unincorporated
portion of the Ojai Valley may be issued only if such lot is
listed upon a waiting list established for that area pursuant
to Section 8159-5.
501-3 OC-1
Sec. 8159-5 - WAITING LISTS FOR RESIDENTIAL PERMITS - Two
waiting lists (designated "Waiting List A" and " Waiting
List B" ) for Residential Permits shall be established for
the Ojai Valley.
(a) Waiting List A - The record owner of a Develop-
able Lot located within the unincorporated
portion of the Ojai Valley may cause such lot
to be listed on Waiting List A by submitting
to the Director a completed application for
such listing in the form approved by the
Director together with a payment of the pro-
cessing fee, if any, established by resolution
of the Board of Supervisors . No such applica-
tion shall be accepted if any record owner,
in whole or in part, of such lot is also the
record owner, in whole or in part, of any
other lot listed on Waiting List A which
other lot was placed on such list in the same
calendar year in which the application in
question was submitted . Each accepted appli-
cation shall be marked with the time and date
of its acceptance by the Director. The lot
to which an accepted application relates
shall then be listed on Waiting List A in the
chronological order of such acceptance .
(b) Waiting List B - The record owner of two or
more Developable Lots located within the
unincorporated portion of the Ojai Valley may
cause such lots to be listed on Waiting List
B, or cause space to be reserved for later
listing of such lots on Waiting List B, by
submitting a completed application for such
listing or reservation in the form approved
by the Director together with the payment of
the processing fee , if any, established by
resolution of the Board of Supervisors . No
such application shall be accepted if any
record owner, in whole or in part, of such
lots would , after such lots had been listed
or spaces therefor been reserved , be the
record owner, in whole or in part , of more
than 20 listed lots and reserved spaces in
the aggregate on Waiting List B which had
been placed on such list in the same calendar
year. For the purpose of this Article , the
record owner of lots for which spaces have been
reserved on Waiting List B shall be deemed to
be the record owner of such reserved spaces .
Further, no such application shall be accepted
if , after such lots had been listed or spaces
therefor reserved , the total number of lots
501-4 OC-1
from a single subdivision listed on Waiting
List B plus the total number of spaces reserved
on Waiting List B for lots from that same sub-
division would be more than 20. Lots are "from
a single subdivision" if they are depicted on
a single approved tentative map and were created
by one or more final or parcel maps recorded in
compliance with such tentative map.
(1) If the application is for the
immediate listing of specific
lots , the following procedures
shall apply. Each accepted
application shall be marked with
the time and date of its accept-
ance by the Director . The lots
to which an accepted application
relate shall be listed on Waiting
List B in the chronological order
of such acceptance .
( 2) If the application is for the
reservation of one or more spaces
on the waiting list, the following
procedures shall apply. Each
application shall identify the
specific lots which could poten-
tially be listed in such space or
spaces . For example , the record
owner of 10 lots could reserve
space on the waiting list for 5
lots. The application would
identify each of the 10 lots which
could potentially be listed in
such 5 spaces , but would not have
to specify which 5 out of the 10
would ultimately be listed . Each
accepted application shall be marked
with the time and date of its
acceptance by the Director. The
number of spaces to which an
accepted application relates shall
be reserved on Waiting List B in
the chronological order of such
acceptance . Such owner may submit
multiple applications pertaining
to the same group of potentially
listed lots provided that the number
of spaces reserved for such group
of lots in the aggregate does not
501-5 OC-1
•
exceed the total number of such
lots which a•re not yet specifi-
cally listed but are still owned as
a matter of record by such owner.
For example , the record owner of 10
lots identified for potential listing
for which 5 spaces had been reserved
could later reserve a maximum of 5
additional spaces farther down the
list pertaining to the same 10 lots .
The person designated on the applica-
tion for such purposes or such
person ' s designee shall have the
authority to specify which particular
lot identified in the application for
potential listing will actually be
listed in each space reserved there-
for regardless of whether ownership
of the lots has changed . Such speci-
fication shall be made by submitting
to the Director a completed form
satisfactory to the Director. Such
form must be submitted prior to sub-
mission of an application for a
Residential permit respecting such
reserved space . The lot so specified
shall then be listed on Waiting List B
in the space to which it has been
assigned .
A lot may simultaneously appear on both Waiting List A and
Waiting List B provided that it meets all other requirements
for listing . No specific lot may appear more than once on
either one of the lists at any given time. A lot that has
been stricken from a waiting list pursuant to this Article
may be listed again provided that it meets all of the
requirements for listing at such time .
Sec . 8159-6 - APPLICATION FOR RESIDENTIAL PERMITS - From
time to time, as it appears to the Director that the
provisions of Section 8159-4 would no longer prohibit
the issuance of Residential Permits with respect to one
or more lots or reserved spaces at the top of the wait-
ing lists , the Director shall mail written notice to the
address indicated for such purpose on the application
for listing . The Director shall mail such notices so
that within each calendar year, to the fullest extent
possible , 25% of the lots and reserved spaces to which
they relate are listed on Waiting List A and 75% are
listed on Waiting List B ; provided that , if either list
is not long enough to use up its allocation within that
501-6 OC-1
calendar year, the Director shall make such unused alloca-
tion available to the other list through notices mailed
in December of that year. The notice shall state that
unless the current record owner of the lot or reserved
space submits to the Building Official of the County an
acceptable application for a Residential Permit within
the time period specified in this Section , the lot or
reserved space shall be stricken from the waiting list.
The application for a Residential Permit shall be com-
pleted in a manner acceptable to the Building Official .
The time period for submitting an acceptable application
for a Residential Permit shall be the 90 calendar days
following the day on which the notice is deposited in
the mail ; provided, however, that for good cause shown
prior to the expiration of such 90-day period the Building
Official may extend such period for an additional period
not to exceed 30 calendar days. Any decision to grant
or deny such an extension shall be final and conclusive
when announced by the Building Official . If the • current
record owner of the lot or reserved space does not submit
an acceptable application for a Residential Permit
within such 90-day period or any extension thereof, the
lot or reserved space shall be stricken from the waiting
list. If the current record owner of the lot does submit
an acceptable application for a Residential Permit within
such 90-day period or any extension thereof , the date
on which such application was accepted shall be marked
thereon.
Sec . 8159-7 - ISSUANCE OF RESIDENTIAL PERMITS - All of the
requirements for issuance of the Residential Permit must
be satisfied within 90 calendar days following the date
on which the application therefor was accepted pursuant
to Section 8159-6 ; provided , however, that for good
cause shown prior to the expiration of such 90-day period
the Building Official may extend such period for an addi-
tional period not to exceed 30 calendar days . Any decision
to grant or deny such an extension shall be final and
conclusive when announced by the Building official . If
all such requirements are satisfied within such 90-day
period or any extension thereof , the Residential Permit
shall be issued and the lot shall be stricken from the
waiting list. If any of such requirements is not satis-
fied within such 90-day period or any extension thereof ,
the Residential Permit shall not be issued and the lot shall
be stricken from the waiting list.
Sec . 8159-8 - VOLUNTARY WITHDRAWAL FROM WAITING LIST - Any
lot or reserved space on a waiting list established
pursuant to Section 8159-5 shall be stricken from such
501-7 OC-1
list at the request of the current record owner of such
lot or reserved space.
Sec. 8159-9 - ANNUAL REVIEW - Commencing in 1984, the
Board of Supervisors shall hold annual public hearings
each January for the purpose of reviewing the effective-
ness of this Article.

geologic conditions of the site shall be
submitted. The geologic evaluation shall
state whether the proposed plan is feasible
and provide general solutions for all known •
hazardous conditions or problems. The
evaluation shall include the location and
lots of any test borings and shall evaluate
•
the effect of the geology on the proposed
development and on adjacent properties. The
evaluation report shall point out specific
areas where development may create hazardous
conditions. The engineering geology evalua-
tion requirements may be waived by the County
'- •
Surveyor providing he finds that, due to the
knowledge his staff has as to the geologic
characteristics of the subdivision area, no
engineering geology evaluation is necessary.
The Advisory Agency may approve or recommend approval of the
subdivision or portion thereof where soils problems or
geological hazards exist if it determines that the actions
recommended in the soils and/or geology reports are likely
to prevent public health problems, prevent structural damage
and eliminate any hazards to each structure to be constructed,
and a condition to the issuance of any building permit may
require that the approved recommended action be incorporated
in the construction of each structure and/or sewage disposal
system.

tract drainage or flood damage. The design shall also ensure
that all public facilities such as sewer, gas, electrical and
water systems are located, elevated and constructed so as to
minimize or eliminate flood damage. Further, the design must
provide that any concentrations or increases of surface water
resulting from the development of the proposed subdivision are
conveyed by means of adequate facilities to a suitable natural
watercourse in the area. Off-tract rights-of-way as may be
necessary for such facilities shall be provided by the
subdivider. All rights-of-way required to be provided

one of the types specified in subdivisions (a) (1) , (a) (2) and (a) (3)
of Section 66499 of the Subdivision Map Act; provided, however, that
the first $500 of the security for performance of the improvement

in correcting unsafe or emergency road conditions occasioned by or
arising out of the performance of any work in constructing the sub-
division improvements , weed abatement within the subdivision or the
removal of trash from within the subdivision. The County may use the
$500 cash deposit only if it is unable to contact the developer (or
his contractor) to perform the required emergency work, weed abatement ,
or trash removal , or if the developer or his contractor refuses to
perform the required work after being informed of its necessity by the
County. If any part of the $500 cash deposit is used by the County,
the developer shall be charged for the cost of the required work, and
shall remit to County within ten days after written notice of such
expenditures sufficient cash to bring the deposit to $500 once :more.

faithful performance shall be in an amount equal to the estimated cost
less $500 of the improvements or the act to be performed, and the bond
for the security of laborers and materialmen shall be in an amount equal
to the full estimated cost of the improvements or the act to be performed.
If the improvement security is in some form other than bonds, the total
amount of such security for both faithful performance and for laborers
and materialmen shall be in an amount equal to 150% of the estimated
cost of the improvements or act to be performed, and at the option of
the County Surveyor any fraction ranging from one-third to two-thirds
of the total amount of such security may be applied to secure faithful
performance and the balance may be applied to secure laborers and
materialmen. AM. ORD. 3457-9/11/79
614 OC-2
Sec. 8282 - EXONERATION OF IMPROVEMENT SECURITY - After full and
faithful performance of the improvement agreement by the subdivider
and, if required, after acceptance by the County Surveyor of the
guarantee security pursuant to Section 8270-3 of this Chapter, the
County Surveyor shall exonerate all improvement security posted to
secure execution of the agreement. The County Surveyor may accept
a cash deposit or a certificate of deposit necessary to accomplish
the required performance in lieu of all or part of such performance
when he finds it is reasonable and necessary under all of the
circumstances . The County Surveyor may accept deferred construction,
secured by agreement and by good and sufficient improvement security
when he finds that such deferred construction is reasonable and
necessary under all of the circumstances. Upon request of the sub-
divider, the County Surveyor may in his discretion reduce the amount
of the improvement security by partial exoneration in an amount not
exceeding fifty percent of the total estimated cost of improvements
of the subdivision when a corresponding percentage amount of improve-
ments has been fully completed to the satisfaction of the County
Surveyor. However, under no circumstances shall such partial exoner-
ation constitute acceptance of the improvements upon which such
partial exoneration is granted.

of the adoption of the boundaries of the area of
benefit.
c. Payment of fees shall not be required for a planned
bridge facility unless the planned bridge facility
is an original bridge serving the area or an
addition to any existing bridge facility serving
the area at the time of the adoption of the
boundaries of the area of benefit, nor shall any
such fees be expended to reimburse the cost of
existing bridge facility construction.
d. Written protests objecting to the establishment of
any proposed area of benefit for any particular
improvement under this Section and Section 66484 of
the Subdivision Map Act may be filed with the Clerk
of the Board of Supervisors by the owners of real
property within the proposed area of benefit at any
time prior to the close of the required public
hearing. If such written protests are filed by the
owners of more than one-half of the area of the
property to be benefited by an improvement, and
%'_" sufficient protests are not withdrawn so as to reduce
the area represented to less than one-half of that
623 OC-1
to be benefited, then the proposed proceedings shall
be abandoned, and the Board of Supervisors shall
not, for one year from the filing of that written
protest, commence or carry on any proceedings ,
for the same improvement or acquisition under
the provisions of this Section and Section 66484
of the Subdivision Map Act.
Nothing in this subsection (d) shall preclude the
processing and recordation of maps in accordance
with ether provisions of this Code and Subdivision
Map Act if proceedings are abandoned.
Any protests may be withdrawn by the property
owner making the same, in writing, at any time
prior to the conclusion-of the required public
hearing.
If any majority protest is directed against only .
a portion of the improvement, then all further
proceedings under the provisions of this Section
and Section 66484 of the Subdivision Map Act to
construct that pertion of the improvement so pro-
tested against shall be barred for a period- of
one year, but the Board of Supervisors shall not
' be barred from commencing new proceedings not
including any part of the improvement or
acquisition so protested against. Nothing in
this subsection (d) shall prohibit the Board of
Supervisors, within such one-year period, from
commencing and carrying on new proceedings for the
construction of a portion of the improvement so
protested against if it finds, by the affirmative
vote of four-fifths of its members, that the
owners of more than one-half of the area of the
property to be benefited are in favor of going
forward with such portion of the improvement or
acquisition.
e. Fees paid pursuant to this Section shall be
deposited in a planned bridge facility or major
thoroughfare fund. A fund shall be established
for each planned bridge facility project or each
planned major thoroughfare project. If the
benefit area is one in which more than one bridge
is required to be constructed, a fund may be
established covering all of the bridge projects
in the benefit area. Moneys in such fund shall
be expended solely for the construction of reim-
brusement for construction of the improvement
serving the area to be benefited and from which
the fees comprising the fund were collected, or
to reimburse the County for the cost of constructing
the improvement.

a. As a condition of the subdivision of land, the subdivider
shall dedicate a portion of such land and/or pay a fee for
the purpose of providing park and recreational facilities
to serve the future residents of the property being sub-
divided. This requirement shall apply to all subdivisions
except those which:

thousand persons residing within the County be devoted to local
park and recreational purposes (as defined in the Recreation
Element of the Ventura County General Plan) , exclusive of and in

addition to:
a. School lands used cooperatively for recreational purposes ,
and
b. Lands purchased and/or developed for the purposes of a
regional park (as defined in the Recreation Element of
the Ventura County General Plan),
ADDED BY ORD. 3216-7/6/76
Sec. 8297-4.2 - Determination of Population Density - Popula-
tion density, for the purposes of park and recreational require-
ments, shall be determined in accordance with the following
standards :
a. Single-family detached dwelling - 3 .22 persons per dwell-
ing unit;
b. Multi-family dwelling - 2.00 persons per dwelling unit;
c. Mobile home - 1. 74personsper dwellingunit.
The basis for determining the total number of each type of
dwelling unit shall be the number of new dwelling units pro-
' posed by the subdivider for the property being subdivided.
The term "new dwelling units" does not include dwelling units
lawfully in place prior to the date on which the tentative map
is approved or dwelling units which, under the zoning regula-
tions applicable at the time the tentative map is approved,
could be built on the property without the prior issuance of
a conditional use permit or other discretionary entitlement.
AM. ORD. 3456-9/11/79; AM. ORD. 3510-12/16/80
Sec. 8297-4.3 - Land Dedication Formula - The amount of land
required to be dedicated by a subdivider for park and recre-
ational purposes shall be based upon the additional population
expected to be generated by the proposed subdivision, and shall
be computed on the basis of five net acres for each one thousand
persons . The amount of additional population expected shall be
determined by multiplying the number of new dwelling units
proposed for the gross area within the subdivision by the number
of persons anticipated to reside within each new dwelling unit
as specified in Section 8297-4.2 . The number of additional per-
sons expected to reside within the subdivision according to the
above computation shall be divided by one thousand and the result
shall be multiplied by five to determine the amount of acreage to
be dedicated.
In the event the area to be dedicated is bounded or abutted by
existing or proposed street frontage, the subdivider shall , at the
time of approval of the tentative map, obligate himself by condition
to said map to provide curbs , gutters , sidewalk, drainage facilities ,
627 OC-3
street lighting, stop lights, street signs , matching pavement
and street trees to full County standards , to stub-in requested
utility line services to the park facility, to provide all
standard improvements required by the appropriate Park District
plus initial on-site grading required for developing the park
facility; provided, however, that, with the approval of the
Advisory Agency or Board of Supervisors, whichever acts last on
the tentative map, and the appropriate Park District, and in
lieu of making said improvements, the subdivider may pay a sum
equal to 20 percent of the fair market value of the dedicated
land to cover the cost of said improvements . Fair market value
shall be determined, as of the date on which the parcel or final
map is filed, in the manner set forth in Section 8297-4.4.
AM. ORD. 3456-9/11/79
627-1 OC-1
Sec. 8297-4. 4 - Amount of Fee In Lieu of Land Dedication -
When a fee is to be paid in lieu of land dedication, the
amount of such fee shall be based upon the fair market value
of the amount of usable park land which would otherwise be
required to be dedicated pursuant to Section 8297-4.3 , and
shall be determined in accordance with the following formula:
the number of acres of land which would otherwise be required
to be dedicated multiplied by the average fair market value
of an acre of usable park land within the subdivision. The
term "usable park land" means land having a terrain of less
than four percent slope. Fair market value shall be deter-�1
mined, as of the date on which the parcel or final map is
filed, as follows:
a. The Planning Division, the appropriate Park District,
and the subdivider may agree to the fair market value;
or
b. If the Planning Division, the subdivider, and the
appropriate Park District are unable to agree to the
fair market value, either party may, at the subdivider' s
expense, obtain an appraisal of the property by an
impartial qualified real estate appraiser approved by
the Planning Division and the appropriate Park District,
which appraisal shall be considered by the Planning
Division and the appropriate Park District in reaching
a decision as to fair market value. The Planning Divi-
sion and the appropriate Park District decision shall
be final and conclusive.
In addition to the fee to be paid in lieu of land dedication,
the subdivider shall also pay an amount equal to 20 percent
of the in-lieu fee to provide curbs, gutters, drainage facili-
ties, street lighting, stop lights, sidewalks, street signs,
matching pavement and street trees to full County standards,
stubbing-in of requested utility line services to the park
facility, all standard improvements required by the appro-
priate Park District, and initial on-site grading required
for developing the park facility. If plans have been estab-
lished for a park site to be purchased totally or in part
with said funds, this additional contribution may, at the
discretion of the Planning Division and the appropriate Park
District, consist of development of the planned site on a
pro rata basis in the same ratio as the cash paid in lieu of
dedication bears to the total cost of the planned park.
Where the Planning Division, the appropriate Park District,
and the subdivider all so agree, all or part of the in-lieu
fee and any additional improvement fee may, instead of being
paid in cash, be paid by making improvements of equivalent
value to existing or projected parks either inside or outside
of the subdivision. The estimated cost of such improvements
628 OC-2
shall be determined in the manner provided in Article 11 of
this Chapter for estimating the cost of improvements to a
subdivision, and such estimated cost, less the 10 percent
increment for contingencies, shall be deemed to be the value
of such improvements for the purposes of offsetting fees
pursuant to this Section. Such improvements shall be pro-
vided for by an improvement agreement and improvement security
meeting the requirements of Article 11 of this Chapter.
Sec. 8297-4.5 - Credit for Private Open Space - Where usable
private open space for park and recreational purposes is pr,.o-
vided in a proposed subdivision and such space is to be
privately owned and maintained by the future residents of the
subdivision, up to a maximum of 50 percent of such private
open space may be credited against the requirement of land
dedication or payment of fees in lieu thereof if the Advisory
Agency or Board of Supervisors, whichever acts last on the
tentative map, finds that it is in the public interest to do
so and that all of the following standards are met:
a. That yards, setbacks, and other open areas required
to be maintained by the zoning and building provisions
of this Code shall not be included in computing the
amount of such private open space; and
b. That the private ownership and maintenance of the open
space shall be adequately provided for in writing; and
c. That the use of the private open space shall be
restricted for park and recreational purposes by
recorded covenants which run with the land in favor
of the future owners of the property within the
subdivision and which cannot be eliminated without
the consent of the appropriate Park District; and
d . That the proposed private open space is reasonably
adaptable for use for park and recreational purposes,
taking into consideration such factors as size, shape,
space, topography, geology, access, and the location
of the private open space; and
e. That the facilities proposed for the private open
space are in substantial compliance with the pro-
visions of the Recreation Element of the Ventura
County General Plan and the requirements of the
Planning Division and the appropriate Park Dis-
trict.
The Advisory Agency or Board of Supervisors, whichever acts
last on the tentative map, shall determine what percentage
of credit, up to the maximum of 50 percent, shall be allowed
in the particular subdivision to which the map pertains'.
629 OC-2
Sec. 8297-4. 6 - Choice and Method of Dedication of Land and/or
Payment of Fees - The procedure for determining whether a sub-
divider is to dedicate land, pay a fee in lieu thereof, or do
both shall be as follows:
a . At the time of filing a tentative map for approval,
the subdivider of the property shall, as a part of
the filing , indicate whether he desires to dedicate
property for park and recreational purposes or whether
he desires to pay a fee in lieu thereof. If he
desires to dedicate land for such purposes, he shall:.
propose the area thereof on the tentative map as
submitted or, if the land lies outside of the sub-
division, he shall submit a legal description of
such land together with the tentative map.
b . For a subdivison requiring the approval of a tentative
and a parcel map, the Advisory Agency and the appropriate
Park District shall determine whether to require dedi-
cation of land, the payment of a fee in lieu thereof , or
a combination of both. The dedication of land lying
outside of the subdivision may be required only if the
subdivider has indicated that he desires to dedicate
such land. In the event that a dedication of land is
required , the Advisory Agency and the appropriate Park
District shall determine prior to approval of the
tentative map the location of the dedication. In the
event that in-lieu fees are to be required, the Advisory
Agency and the appropriate Park District shall determine
prior to approval of the tentative map the amount of
land for which in-lieu fees are to be accepted.
For a subdivision requiring the approval of a tentative
and a final map, the Board of Supervisors and the
appropriate Park District shall determine whether to
require dedication of land, the payment of a fee in
lieu thereof , or a combination of both. The dedication
of land lying outside of the subdivision may be required
only if the subdivider has indicated that he desires to
dedicate such land. In the event that a dedication of
land is required, the Board of Supervisors and the
appropriate Park District shall determine prior to
approval of the tentative map the location of the dedi-
cation. In the event that in-lieu fees are to be
required, the Board of Supervisors and the appropriate
Park District shall determined prior to approval of the
tentative map the amount of land for which in-lieu fees
are to be accepted.
630 OC-2
c. When land dedication is required, it shall be accom-
plished in accordance with the provisions of the Sub-
division Map Act and of Section 8297-4 .7. When fees
are required, they shall be deposited with the appro-
priate Park District prior to recordation of the parcel
or final map, except as otherwise provided in Section
8297-4.4 with respect to fees paid by making improve-
ments to existing or projected parks rather than by
paying cash. If a subdivision covered by a tentative
map is recorded in phases, the in-lieu fees shall be
allocated pro rata amongst the various phases according
to the relative area covered by the parcel or final maps
constituting such phases. All fees so deposited shall
be held until such time as the parcel or final map is
approved, rejected, or withdrawn by the subdivider. If
the parcel or final map is rejected or withdrawn, the
fees so deposited shall be returned without interest to
the subdivider. Open space covenants for private park
or recreational facilities must be approved by the Plan-
ning Division upon the advice of the County Counsel and
the appropriate Park District prior to approval of the
parcel or final map, and shall be recorded concurrently
with the parcel or final map.
d. The determination whether to require a land dedication,
the payment of a fee in lieu thereof, or a combination
of both, shall be made upon consideration of the follow-
ing factors:
1 . The Recreation Element of the Ventura County
General Plan;
2. The topography, geology, access and location
of the land available for dedication;
3. The size and shape of the subdivision and the land
available for dedication;
4. The location of existing or proposed park sites
and trailways; and
5. The desirability of developing the land proposed
for dedication for park and recreational purposes
as determined by review and a schematic site plan
submitted by the subdivider.
Sec. 8297-4.7 - Conveyance of Land - Real property dedicated
under the provisions of Section 8297-4 et seq. of this Article
shall be conveyed by grant deed in fee simple absolute to the
appropriate Park District by the subdivider free and clear of
all encumbrances except those which will not interfere with
use of the property for park and recreational purposes and
631 OC-2
•
which the applicable Park District agrees to accept. Required
deeds shall be deposited with the appropriate Park District
prior to recordation of the parcel or final map. If the
subdivision covered by a tentative map is recorded in phases ,
said deeds covering all the land to be dedicated on account of
such subdivision shall be so deposited prior to recordation of
the parcel or final map constituting the first phase. The
deeds shall be held by the appropriate Park District until
such time as the parcel or final map is approved, rejected, or
withdrawn by the subdivider. If the parcel or final map is.
rejected or withdrawn, the deeds shall be returned to the
subdivider. The subdivider shall provide all fees and instru-
ments required to convey the land plus title insurance in
favor of the appropriate Park District in an amount equal to
the value of the property being conveyed.
Sec. 8297-4.8 - Time of Commencement of Development - Any fees
collected pursuant to Section 8297-4 et seq. of this Article
shall be committed within the time limits specified in Section
66477 of the Subdivision Map Act or, if' not so committed,
shall be distributed as provided in said Section 66477.
Sec. 8297-4.9 - Limitation on Use of Land and Fees - The land
and fees received under Section 8297-4 et seq. of this Article
shall be used only- for the purpose of providing park and
recreational facilities, and the amount and location of land
to be dedicated, the fees to be paid in lieu thereof, or any
combination of dedication and fees shall bear a reasonable
relationship to the use of park and recreational facilities
by the future inhabitants of the subdivision.

Sec. 8162-3.2 - Fansion Within Structure - The nonconforming
use of a nonconforming building or structure may be expanded or
extended throughout such building or structure, provided that no
structural alterations shall be made therein except as required
by law.
Sec. 8162-3.3 - Nonconforming Use Change - The nonconforming use of a
nonconforming building or structure may be changed to another use
permitted in the same zone or a more restrictive use, provided that
no structural alterations are made thereto.
Sec. 8162-3.3.1 - Sequence of Use Restriction - If the nonconform-
ing use of a nonconforming building is changed to a use which is
a more restrictive use, the sequence of said uses, the first being
the most restrictive and the last being the least restrictive is
as follows: One Family Residential Use, TWo Family Residential Use,
Multiple Family Residential Use, Catirercial Office Use, Neighborhood
Commercial Use, General Commercial Use, Industrial Park Use,
Limited Industrial Park Use and General Industrial Park Use. Wben
the use of a nonconforming building is changed to a use which is
permitted in a more restrictive zone, such a nonconforming building
shall not thereafter be used for a use which is permitted only in
a less restrictive zone.
Sec. 8162-3.4 - Involuntary Partial Destruction - Nhenever in any zone
a nonconforming building or structure is involuntarily damaged or
destroyed to the extent of fifty percent (50%) or less of its reason-
able value, it may be restored and the occupancy or use of such building
or structure or part thereof which existed at the time of such partial
destruction may be continued, if such restoration is started within a
period of twelve (12) months of such damage or destruction and is
diligently prosecuted to completion.
Sec. 8162-3.5 - Voluntary Partial Destruction - Whenever in any zone
a nonconforming building or structure is voluntarily removed, damaged
or destroyed to the extent of fifty percent (50%) or less of its

such portion of such building or structure is made to conform to the
regulations of the new zone classification in which it is located.
Sec. 8162-3.6 - Substantial Destruction or Removal - Whenever in any
zone a nonconforming building or structure is removed or is voluntarily
or involuntarily damaged or destroyed to the extent of more than fifty
percent (50%) of its reasonable value, no repairs or reconstruction
shall be made unless every portion of such building or structure is made
to conform to the regulations of the new zone classification in wilic a

•
permit use or development of such lot as a discrete unit under the applicable
provisions of the Open Space Element of the General Plan, only if the owner
or, if there be more than one, any one of the owners of such nonconforming lot
does not own, in whole or in part, any contiguous lot; provided, however, that
such use shall be permitted on such nonconforming lot if 1) both the
nonconforming lot and the contiguous lot are developed with main buildings, as
opposed to accessory buildings, for which a permit has been issued by the
County or which were built prior to the time that permits were required
therefor by the County or 2) the nonconforming lot and contiguous lot each
have an area of at least 10 acres. (AM. ORD. 3650-5/17/83)
Sec. 8162-8 - Nonconforming Uses of Land or Buildings - A variance or
permit is granted automatically hereby, so as to permit the continuation of
the particular existing uses of any building, structure, .improvement or
premises existing in the respective zones immediately prior to the time
this ordinance or any amendment thereof becomes effective if such existing
use was not in violation of this or any other ordinance or law. Whenever
the zone classification of any property is changed any property being used
pursuant to variance or permit may be used thereafter in the manner
authorized by said variance or permit as a nonconforming use for the
duration of said variance or permit.
Sec. 8162-9 - NONCOMFORMING LOTS RESULTING FROM LOT SPLITS - No
building permit shall be issued for any lot which results from the
sale of part of a lot or any other type of division of land if such
resulting lot did not meet the zoning requirements which applied to
the land at the time of said division and does not meet with the
zoning requirements which apply to the land at the time of applica-
tion for the permit unless a variance is obtained from the Planning
Commission. This section is inapplicable to lots resulting from a
lawful lot line adjustment. (AM.ORD. 2845-5/14/74 ;AM.ORD. 3483-3/4/80 ;
