OPEN SPACE <br />The purpose of the Open Space Element is to identify and preserve <br />open space areas that provide value to the community and enrich <br />the quality of life. Such lands or waters provide value in the form <br />of recreation, health, biodiversity, wildlife conservation, and <br />aesthetics. Additionally, open spaces are used for climate change <br />mitigation and adaption, flood risk reduction, managed natural <br />resources production, agricultural production, and protection <br />from hazardous conditions. The Open Space Element will guide <br />the City in its efforts to plan for open space lands in what is largely <br />a built -out, urban environment. <br />CITY OF SANTA ANA GENERAL PLAN 0 a <br />
