104-10-4 Special Regulations

a. General use regulations. The above specified uses shall be permitted only under the following conditions: 1. Public health requirements concerning domestic water supply and sewage disposal shall comply with provisions of Section 108-7-9. 2. No building or structure shall be constructed within the boundaries of any public reservoir as determined by the public agency having jurisdiction or within the boundaries of any natural waterway or watercourse as determined by the county engineer wherein no buildings or structures shall be constructed or land subdivided. Where buildings are to be constructed within 50 feet of the exterior boundaries of a flood channel existing at the effective date of the ordinance from which this chapter is derived, adequate measures must be taken as determined by the Weber County Engineer so as to protect the building or structure from damage due to floods and so as not to increase the hazard to surrounding lands and buildings. 3. The required yard space shall be kept free of debris, refuse or other inflammable material which may constitute a fire hazard. 4. Agritourism activities must remain incidental and subordinate to an active agricultural operation and shall not function as stand-alone event facilities. b. Specific use regulations. The uses listed below correspond with certain uses listed in the Land Use Table in Section 104-10-3. Due to the nature of the use, each shall be further regulated as follows: Agricultural uses shall comply with Chapter 104-2-4 Outdoor storage of boats, trailers, and recreational vehicles shall be screened or located to minimize visibility from public roads where reasonably practical and not requiring significant cost or site alteration. Watershed Protection Standards Purpose These standards are intended to protect Pineview Reservoir water quality, reduce erosion, preserve watershed function, and maintain the visual character of the reservoir setting while allowing reasonable use of private property located upslope from federally managed shoreline lands. A. Setback from Federal Shoreline Lands Structures shall be located a minimum of: 50 feet from property lines adjoining U.S. Forest Service shoreline parcels This setback is intended to: • maintain visual character of the reservoir basin • reduce runoff impacts • allow natural drainage patterns • reduce edge conflicts between uses B. Septic System Protection Septic systems shall comply with Weber-Morgan Health Department regulations. In addition: New septic drain fields should be located to maximize separation from downslope drainage pathways leading toward Pineview Reservoir. Where site constraints exist, applicants may be required to demonstrate compliance with Health Department standards through site evaluation. C. Vegetation Retention Existing vegetation should be preserved where practical, particularly on slopes facing the reservoir. Encouraged practices include: • maintaining native grasses or shrubs • minimizing soil disturbance • revegetating disturbed slopes • using erosion control practices where grading occurs Agricultural use is permitted provided reasonable erosion control practices are maintained. D. Grading and Drainage Development shall avoid creating concentrated drainage patterns that direct runoff toward downslope federal shoreline lands. Reasonable measures may include: • directing runoff to stable ground • dispersing roof drainage • maintaining natural contours where feasible • using vegetated drainage areas No engineered stormwater design shall be required unless otherwise required by City Engineering. F. Relationship to Other Regulations These standards supplement and do not replace: • Weber-Morgan Health Department regulations • County engineering standards • U.S. Forest Service requirements • FEMA flood regulations Where conflicts exist, the more restrictive standard applies.
