AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE CABARRUS COUNTY DEVELOPMENT <br /> ORDINANCE <br /> TEXT2017-00007 <br /> BE IT ORDAINED that the Cabarrus Development Ordinance is hereby amended as follows: <br /> AMEND CHAPTER 4, OVERLAY DISTRICTS AND ZONES AS FOLLOWS: <br /> Section 4-8 Intention of Waterbody Buffer Zone <br /> The purpose of the Waterbody Buffer Zone is to provide protected, vegetated strips of land adjacent to <br /> streams, rivers, lakes, ponds, impoundments, wetlands. These buffers are retained in a natural, <br /> undisturbed, state, in an effort to avoid erosion problems and to reduce the velocity of overland flow, <br /> thus trapping sediment and soil eroded from cropland or land being developed to limit pollutants from <br /> entering the waterway. <br /> Section 4-9 Effect upon bona fide farms <br /> While North Carolina law exempts bona fide farms from local zoning regulations, the County strongly <br /> encourages the use of best management practices in farming. A waterbody buffer is one of these <br /> practices and is therefore consistent with North Carolina Sediment Control Law and thus is a 75% <br /> reimbursable North Carolina Agricultural Cost- Share Program. This program is administered through <br /> the Cabarrus Soil and Water District. The following text shall apply to all development or changing of <br /> conditions (e.g.,timbering, land clearing, etc.) adjacent to waterbodies as defined below. <br /> 4.9-1-Impoundments for agricultural purposes <br /> Impoundments used primarily for bona fide agricultural purposes, including animal watering, irrigation, <br /> or other agricultural uses shall not be subject to buffering requirements unless the waterbody is part of <br /> a natural drainage way(i.e., unless the waterbody is located on a perennial G.'ass A er cu'a stream); <br /> Section 4-10 Requirements of the Waterbody Buffer Zone <br /> 1. A minimum 50-foot buffer shall be established from the stream bank on all sides of perennial e-P <br /> Ck;rr I streams in addition to any lakes, ponds or impoundments located along, or on, those <br /> Ck;rr I Perennial streams include all rivers, streams, lakes, ponds or waterbodies <br /> shown on the USGS Quadrangle Maps as a solid blue line or identified in the Cabarrus County <br /> Geographic Information System. <br /> 2. A minimum 39;?`: foot s4ea;T buffer shall be established along the edge of fpe-R; the tpp-- <br /> h--,R14 „ .,I I Sid- . „f a ;R+ A-F Cl-a-r-r 2 tpeam-r @Rd any identified wetlands.
