Abstract
The urban growth dataset represents the nine cities, urban (incorporated) municipality urban growth (a.k.a. UGB) boundaries within the County of Sonoma. See Data Quality - Attribute Accuracy tab for boundary modification history. As defined by LAFCO (May 2003): An Urban Growth Boundary is a voter-enacted boundary for those City's which reside within the County of Sonoma. The boundary depicts the maximum growth over a specific period of time (typically 20 year time frame) as desired by the voters (residents) within the City's and acts as a control measure by the people. The jurisdiction of the boundary resides with the City's and thus, any modifications and/or amendments must be voted on by the registered voters within the City limits. Therefore, LAFCO has no jurisdiction as to the establishment of the urban growth boundaries beyond that of the City's Sphere of Influence (a.k.a. SOI).
Purpose
Since the GIS data was developed for planning purposes and use in publication of maps and/or database creation, the data is for illustrative purpose only and is not suitable for parcel specific decision making. Therefore, the GIS data presented herein are approximations and further land development determination is at the discretion of the PRMD planning staff which may require a parcel specific site review (to draw parcel specific conclusions).
