It establishes limits to keep this national treasure from chaos and degradation seen in other scenic locations. While these policies have preserved Big Sur and kept it unspoiled, commercial interests are actively seeking expanded development which would destroy Big Sur’s unique character, and further congest its scenic highway. Keep Big Sur Wild is dedicated to defending the policies and intent of the Big Sur Land Use Plan, the governing document for all land use on the Big Sur Coast. Our goal is to retain the existing protections in the Big Sur Land Use Plan. To preserve for posterity the incomparable beauty of the Big Sur country, its special cultural and natural resources, its landforms and seascapes and inspirational vistas. To this end, all development must harmonize with and be subordinate to the wild and natural character of the land.” — LUP Section 2.1 - Maintenance of the quality of the natural experience along the Big Sur coast has precedence over development of any permitted uses, whether residential, recreational or commercial.” — LUP Section 3.1 -Resource Management Future land use development on the Big Sur coast should be extremely limited, in keeping with the larger goal of preserving the coast as a scenic natural area. In all cases, new land uses must remain subordinate to the character and grandeur of the Big Sur country. All proposed uses, whether public or private, must meet the same exacting environmental standards and must contribute to the preservation of Big Sur’s scenery.” — LUP Section 5.4.1 -Key Policy Donate to oUR watchDog effoRtS thRoUgh McgiveS! keepbigsurwild.org Celebrating 90 years of Conservation pointlobos.org • montereycountygives.com/lobos Donate today to help us ensure future generations can safely explore the beauty of Point Lobos State Natural Reserve.
