The map is used by the County of Ventura to identify the general location of hazardous areas. The purpose of this data is to assist in regulating development. The County can withhold development permits until geologic or soils investigations are conducted for specific sites and mitigation measures are incorporated into development plans. Sellers of property use the maps to check the location of their specific site and, if applicable, disclose to the buyer that the property lies near or possibly within a hazard zone. |
