SB 1954 grants counties zoning authority over hydrologically sensitive areas, such as aquifer recharge zones, floodplains, and riparian areas. The bill allows counties to regulate building height, lot occupancy, density, and land use in designated protected areas. Counties must hold a public election before adopting these regulations and establish a planning commission to recommend zoning policies for protected areas.
