§ 58.421. Purpose of the District.  


Latest version.
  • The intent of the RP Overlay District is to provide information to property owners, City officials and the general public by identifying the approximate locations of major environmental features which may restrict or otherwise affect the development of land. The RP Overlay District is intended to be informational only, since regulations to protect environmentally sensitive areas such as surface water bodies, groundwater recharge areas, floodplains, and wetlands are set forth elsewhere in this Code. The requirements found in the environmental protection section of this Code, Conservation (C) District and in the City's OUSWMM manual dealing with floodplains, stormwater management and lakes, govern all such environmentally sensitive areas. Therefore, the RP Overlay District contains no standards of its own. The reader is referred to Chapter 58, Part 2L, Conservation District; Chapter 63, Parts 2C, 2D, 2H and 2I and to the OUSWMM manual for the appropriate regulations.
