You also need zoning approval. Approval from the historic commission is required for any exterior changes within a designated historic district. Always check with the Zoning Officer before considering any exterior changes to your historic property. If you plan a project that doesn't conform to the zoning standards, you might have your project approved by submitting a variance application to the Zoning Board of Adjustment. The variance procedure could take three months or more, from start to finish.
Construction is restricted in locations with wetlands, flood plains, or steep slopes.
Trailers, motor homes and the like, can only be stored in residential zones within specific limitations. Call the Zoning Officer for details. The minimum lot size for keeping horses, for the enjoyment of the residents of a property, is three acres. On three acres you can have a maximum of two horses, with one additional acre required for each additional horse. The minimum lot size for agricultural purposes is five acres.
