The purpose of this chapter is to protect the health, safety, welfare, and property of the residents of the Town of Canandaigua as well as the Town's public resources by prohibiting land uses related to the exploration for, extraction of and storage of natural gas, petroleum and similar hydrocarbon-based resources, which are inconsistent with the character of the Town and its adopted plans, and the effects of which would constitute a significant detriment to public health and safety if not prohibited.
