  (2)   The overall outcomes sought for the Community Facilities zone are as follows:
        (a)    The Community Facilities zone primarily accommodates a variety of community related activities and

        (b)    Development provides for the continued use of community land for the specific purpose annotated on the zone
               map, and where the use is no longer meeting a community need, is replaced with another community related
               activity.
