Shoreland Zoning14.6.0 Building Setbacks1968 Law allowed reduced setback from required 75’ setback using existing principal structures within 200’ of requesting lot
2012 Law allows reduced setback from required 75’ setback using existing principal structures within 250’ of rquesting lot

Shoreland Zoning14.7.0 Vegetation1968 Law• First 35’ no clear-cut
zone• No definition for
clear-cut
New Law • First 35’ no vegetation
removal (2015 compliance, all riparian lands)
• Access/viewing corridors• Shoreline restoration
activities & invasive species control
• Dead, dying or diseased; replaced with native vegetation

Shoreland Zoning• Help clarity by holding
sediment in place.• Take up nutrients that would
be used by algae. • Shelter for wildlife.• Wildlife food and nesting
areas.• Can help reduce erosion and
runoff. • Spawning beds in sedges
/emergent plants for fish.
90% of all lake life is born, raised and fed in the area where land and water meet.

Shoreland Zoning14.9.0 Impervious Surface Standards• Keep what you have• Up to 15% impervious no permit is needed• Between 15%-30% needs a permit and mitigation

Impervious Surface Example
15% of 20,000 sq. ft. lot
1500 sq. ft. house footprint740 sq. ft. garage
660 sq. ft. driveway100 sq. ft. sidewalk
3000 sq. ft. total

Shoreland Zoning14.11.0 Nonconforming Uses/Structures• Nonconforming structure is an existing structure that was
lawfully placed when constructed but that does not comply with the required water setback (legal, pre-existing structures)
• NR 115 provides increased flexibility for nonconforming structures in exchange for mitigation:• Vertical expansion• Horizontal and/or vertical expansion beyond the shoreline
setback• Replacement or relocation• Requires mitigation plan approved by County
• Current legislation may be changing in future regarding nonconforming structures
