A single viewing/access corridor up to 35 feet wide may cross both zones <br /> perpendicular to the shore. Vegetation removal, cutting, trimming and land disturbing activities are <br /> prohibited in the no-touch zone. Limited pruning and mowing are allowed in the viewing/access corridor <br /> and the minimum maintenance zone. Walkways, pathways and stairs must be located in the viewing/access <br /> corridor; piers, wharfs and lifts must be placed in the water 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 35 <br /> feet. The remaining buffer area, extending back to 50 feet and the 35 foot viewing corridor must be vegetated <br /> but can be mowed, lawn type grasses. <br /> Viewing/Access Corridor <br /> You are allowed one viewing and access corridor or no more than 35 feet wide. The viewing corridor and <br /> minimum maintenance area(from 35 to 50 feet from the ordinary high water mark) must be vegetated to <br /> prevent erosion. You can maintain lawn grasses in these areas. <br /> No Touch, Natural Vegetation Zone <br /> Plant native shrubs and trees. 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 1S REQUIRED ******* <br /> The landowner guide includes appropriate plant lists and a list of businesses that provide native plants.
