Buffers consist of two major <br /> components: The first component(35 feet deep) is a no-touch, natural vegetation zone and the second <br /> component is a minimum maintenance zone. A single viewing/access corridor up to 35 feet wide for every full <br /> 100 feet of frontage, may cross both zones perpendicular to the shore. Vegetation removal,cutting, trimming <br /> and land disturbing activities are prohibited in the no-touch zone. Limited pruning and mowing are <br /> allowed in the viewing/access corridor and the minimum maintenance zone. Walkways, pathways and <br /> stairs must be located in the viewing/access corridor; and piers, wharfs and lifts must be placed in the water <br /> immediately in front of the corridor. <br /> The no-touch zone must be established and maintained from the ordinary high water mark and extend inland <br /> thirty-five feet. The remaining buffer arca, extending back to 50 feet and the 30 foot viewing/access corridor <br /> must have adequate vegetative cover such as lawn grass. <br /> No Touch, Natural Vegetation Zone <br /> Plant 8 native shrubs. Instructions for planting are found in the landowner guide. Plan to water <br /> regularly the first year to ensure plant survival. Allow existing vegetation to grow with no mowing or <br /> trimming. <br /> *********VEGETATION NATIVE TO BURNETT COUNTY IS REQUIRED********* <br /> The landowner guide includes appropriate plant lists and a list of businesses that provide native plants.
