  • Inventory of Agricultural, Natural, and Cultural Resources
    Chapter III INVENTORY OF AGRICULTURAL, NATURAL, AND CULTURAL RESOURCES INTRODUCTION The conservation and wise use of agricultural and natural resources and the preservation of cultural resources are fundamental to achieving strong and stable physical and economic development as well as maintaining community identity. The Ozaukee County multi-jurisdictional comprehensive plan recognizes that agricultural, natural, and cultural resources are limited and very difficult or impossible to replace if damaged or destroyed. Information on the characteristics and location of agricultural, natural, and cultural resources in the County is needed to help properly locate future urban and rural land uses to avoid serious environmental problems and to ensure protection of natural resources. This chapter provides inventory information on existing agricultural, natural, and cultural resources in the Ozaukee County planning area and each applicable local unit of government1 participating in the multi- jurisdictional comprehensive planning process. Information regarding soil types, existing farmland, farming operations, topography and geology, water resources, forest resources, natural areas and critical species habitats, environmental corridors, park and open space sites, historical resources, archeological resources, and nonmetallic mining resources is included in this chapter. The planning recommendations set forth in the Agricultural, Natural, and Cultural Resources Element chapter of this report are directly related to the inventory of the resources listed above. The base year for inventory data presented in this chapter range from 1994 to 2007. Much of the inventory data has been collected through regional land use and natural area planning activities conducted by SEWRPC. Additional inventory data has been collected from the County, local units of government, and State and Federal agencies including the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources; Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade, and Consumer Protection; State Historical Society of Wisconsin; U.S.

  • Existing Park and Open Space Sites
    Chapter III EXISTING PARK AND OPEN SPACE SITES INTRODUCTION A comprehensive areawide inventory of park and open space sites was conducted in 1973 under the initial regional park and open space planning program. The inventory is updated periodically, including in 2007 as part of the Ozaukee County comprehensive planning program. The inventory of park and open space sites in the County was updated again in 2010 for use in preparing this new County park and open space plan. The findings of the 2010 inventory are presented in this chapter. The 2010 inventory identified all park and open space sites owned by a public agency, including Federal, State, County, or local units of government and school districts. Also identified in the inventory were lands held in conservation easements by organizations such as the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) and the Ozaukee Washington Land Trust (OWLT). The inventory also included privately owned resource-oriented outdoor recreation sites such as golf courses, campgrounds, ski hills, boating access sites, swimming beaches, hunting clubs, and group camps such as Scout or YMCA camps, and special use outdoor recreation sites. Sites owned by nonprofit conservation organizations, such as OWLT, were also identified. The inventory of private outdoor recreation sites focused on resource-oriented sites because the County park and open space plan is most directly concerned with the provision of sites and facilities for resource-oriented activities. The inventory also identified such other recreation resources as existing trails and bicycle ways and historic sites listed on the National Register of Historic Places. EXISTING PARK AND OPEN SPACE SITES Park and Open Space Sites Owned by Ozaukee County Park and open space sites owned by Ozaukee County in 2010 are shown on Map 15 and listed on Table 10.
