What is the zoning of the property and are ski type lakes and clubs allowed?
The zoning is Diverse Agriculture, DA.

The BZA can, at their descretion allow similar uses, particularly if there is a specific need and there is no Significant impact on the environment or agricultural use of the property. In Sonoma County there is only one public lake to ski on, Lake Sonoma. There is no slalom water ski course there and the safety record is questionable as are the facilities which are often poorly maintained, overcrowded, and not conducive to safe water recreation. The weather and water conditions there are usually not conducive to serious slalom practice or for young children to learn to ski. In Sonoma County there is no other slalom practice sites and there is certainly no county budget or plans to develop any. Many of us traveled regularly to Lake Ber
