The Hearst Corporation, American Land Conservancy and California Rangeland Trust have partnered with the state to preserve 128 square miles of pristine rangeland that includes 18 miles of spectacular coastline along scenic Highway One.

There is no repository that collects such ordinances (with the limited exception of campaign finance ordinances collected by the Fair Political Practices Commission).
