§ 17.12.010. Purpose.  


Latest version.
  • The purpose of the mineral resource (MR) district is to protect long-term mining operations (i.e., mines with thirty years or more of expected operation). This district is consistent with the mineral resource (MR) general plan designation. This district may also be applied to other areas where there are mineral deposits that can be mined commercially; provided, there are no conflicts with other general plan policies.
