SHORELAND ZONING <br /> <br />On all lakes, rivers and streams, which are large enough for recreational <br />use (boating, swinging, fishing, etc.), consideration should be given <br />to the following: <br /> <br />Preservation of all, or of a portion of, shoreland in its <br />natural state. <br /> <br />Provision for public access in a manner not conflicting with <br />careful use of privately owned shoreland. <br /> <br />Require a building set-back a specific distance from a shore- <br />line, which will minimize visual distractions from the natural <br />state and maximize safety of these areas. <br /> <br />Control shoreline cluttering of unsightly garbage, shacks or <br />docks. <br /> <br />In addition, a floodplain zoning ordinance has been adopted for Rum, <br />Mississippi, and lrott Rivers and areas of natural runoff. This will <br />enable natural wetlands to be preserved for storm drainage management, <br />for aesthetic enjoyment, and for recreational purposes. This will <br />aid in avoiding property damage and prevent soil erosion. <br /> <br />9 <br /> <br /> <br />
