Preliminary Draft Definitions— Revised November 5, 2010 Access Path = an area designated to pro ide ingress and egress to public waters. Bluff Impact Zone (BIZ). land on and within 20 of a bluff. (For definition of bluff, see Sheet 2) Bluffline =top of a bluff. More than one bluffline may be encountered proceeding landward from the ri er. Setback = a separation distance measured horizontally. Shore impact Zone (SW= land located between the WL of a public water and a line parallel to it at 50 of the required structure setback. Slope Preservation Zone (SPZ) = land on and within 20 of a ery steep slope. (Includes the BIZ, for definition of very steep slope, see Sheet 2) Structure = any building, sign, or appurtenance thereto, except aerial or underground utility lines, such as sewer, electric, telephone, telegraph, or gas lines, including towers, poles, and other supporting appurtenances. (MN Rules, Chapter6105) Suitable Area = the area remaining on a lot or parcel of land after the B Z, S 0, SPZ, R W, roads, historic sites, wetlands, designated floodways, and land below the WL are subtracted. Water Oriented Accessory Structure= a small building or other impro ement, except stairways, fences, docks, and retaining walls, that, because of the relationship of its use to a surface water feature, reasonably needs to be located closer to public waters than the normal structure setback. Water- oriented accessory structures include gazebos, screen houses, fish houses, storage sheds, pump houses, and detached decks and patios.
