To use this Plan, the General Plan elements should first be reviewed for applicable goals and policies and the General Plan Land Use Maps (General Plan Appendix LU-1) should be referred to when applicable to determine the type, location, and density of land use allowed. This plan supplements these County-wide policies and diagrams and further directs the land uses and development desired to achieve the community’s vision.

14.2 Implementation and Monitoring of the Master Plan

The County will implement the Master Plan by monitoring the development of the future uses included as part of the Master Plan. The Plan includes the community’s key issues as well as the goals and policies to address the issues identified. For each policy or set of policies, there is one or more implementation action identified to carry it out. Many of the policies will be implemented by County ordinances and other discretionary actions such as zoning, design guidelines, and development standards in the County Zoning Code. Implementation of the Plan should be monitored on a periodic basis by the County and the Campo/Lake Morena Community Plan for progress towards its implementation.

The Camp Lockett Master Plan implements the goals and policies of the County General Plan Land Use Element and the Campo/Lake Morena Community Plan. The regional categories shown on the County General Plan Land Use Element Map delineate the pattern of development to take place in this region through the year 2030. The land use designations will be used to implement the regional categories. Land use designations provide for various residential, commercial, community-serving, and special uses. In a similar manner, Use Regulations in the Zoning Ordinance will be used to implement the land use designations.
