Viewshed Protection Ordinance
Viewshed is a term used to describe the hillsides generally visible from a populated area. In Santa Clara County, the term applies to the scenic mountainous lands generally visible from most portions of the urbanized areas of the County. The Viewshed Protection Ordinance was an effort to improve existing regulations, establish clearer standards for public awareness, and reduce visual and environmental impacts of new development.
