| ** |
Buildings are generally prohibited in the conservation district. However, restrooms
and other facilities may be necessary to support desirable low-impact recreation and
agricultural uses. Whenever possible, such buildings should be located outside of
the C zone. When this is not feasible, small buildings are permitted in zone C on
parcels larger than ten (10) acres, provided that the building is "a necessary appurtenance"
of the recreational, agricultural, or open space use. Open pavilions are not considered
buildings and are thus permitted. These considerations should be taken up by the planning
board during the site plan review of the proposed use.
Filing, storage, and other encroachments on natural drainage and flood flows are prohibited in zone C. |

The CEO may give written authorization or permit for excavation specifically limited to performing environmental audit of land, testing of soils to determine any condition thereof and testing for potential, character, and volume of underground water to determine its quality.
