Conditions for Issuance of Zoning Permits

Recommendation

Zoning ordinances will require that all necessary state, federal, and county permits (including Health Department septic permits) be obtained prior to a zoning permit being issued.

Reasons for Recommendation

By requiring that all necessary permits be obtained prior to the issuance of a zoning permit, jurisdictions can be sure that the requirements of all other agencies are being met by the proposed development.

Notes

5 of 10 Zoning Ordinances around the Lake currently meet or exceed this recommended standard – Charlevoix Township, Evangeline Township, Hayes Township, Marion Township, South Arm Township
