COMPREHENSIVE AMENDMENTS TO <br /> BURNETT COUNTY LAND USE ORDINANCE <br /> BURNETT COUNTY, WISCONSIN <br /> SECTION 1.0 INTRODUCTION <br /> 1.1 AUTHORITY AND PURPOSE <br /> Pursuant to the authority granted in Sections 59.97, 59.971, 59.99 <br /> and 87.30, Wisconsin Statutes, the Board of Supervisors of Burnett <br /> County does ordain and enact as follows: <br /> An ordinance regulating and restricting the location, construction <br /> and use of building, structures, and the use of land in the <br /> unincorporated portions of Burnett County and dividing the County <br /> into districts. <br /> 1.2 APPLICABILITY <br /> All of the towns of Burnett County are subject to county shoreland <br /> and floodplain zoning within floodplain and shoreland areas described <br /> in Sections 4.4, 4.5 and 3.1(14) of this Ordinance. The shoreland <br /> section supersedes all the provisions of any county zoning ordinance <br /> enacted under Section 59.97, Wisconsin Statutes which relates to <br /> shorelands. However, where a county zoning ordinance enacted under <br /> a statute other than Section 59.97, Wisconsin Statutes is more <br /> restrictive, that ordinance shall continue in full force to the <br /> extent of the greater restrictions but not otherwise. <br /> 1.3 INTERPRETATION <br /> The provisions of this ordinance shall be held to be minimum <br /> requirements, adopted for the promotion and protection of the public <br /> health, morals, safety, or the general welfare. Whenever the <br /> requirements of this ordinance are at variance with the requirements <br /> of any other lawfully adopted regulations, ordinances, or private <br /> covenants, the most restrictive, or that imposing the higher <br /> standards, shall govern. <br /> - 1 - <br />
