From the Paper:

"The second element of land use and government action that Proposition 207 deals with is the area of regulations. In the past, if the government suddenly decided to declare a certain bird or tree or flower as protected, and that flower appeared on someone's land, that person was prohibited from the development of the land that the protected element was located on. What this means is before the passage of 207 if the government suddenly decided that a rose was protected, and land had natural roses growing on it the land could not be sold or developed as the owners would be government ordered to set aside that land as a natural preserve."
