Currentness
In determining whether or not to make the written finding contained in PRC § 4621.2(a)(1), the Director or the Board upon appeal shall consider the following elements of public interest:
(a) Whether the alternative use will serve a public need; provide a public service; benefit the local community and region, including economic and social benefits; avoid damage or threatened damage to other property, especially public parks and other publicly-owned lands; or involve costs and secondary impacts caused by services required by the alternative use.
(b) The adverse environmental impacts of the alternative use and mitigation thereof. Impacts shall include, but not be limited to, impacts on Lakes, Streams, and other waters; wildlife; air quality; and aesthetics.
(c) The impact on the long term timber supply capability of California, including the cumulative impact from conversion of similar properties.
(d) The availability of proximate and suitable land to accommodate the alternative use which lies outside of a TPZ or which would involve the removal of lower quality Timberlands from productive use.
