This title is adopted in accordance with the authority vested in the town council by Wyoming Statutes sections 15-1-601 through 15-1-611. (Ord. 2001-05, 6-11-2001)

This title has been prepared to encourage an orderly development pattern within the town of Wright. The Wright zoning ordinance represents an important planning tool that will be used by the town to help implement the Wright master plan. The Wright master plan that was adopted by the Wright town council on January 25, 1999, contains a more general community vision for future land uses within the town. (Ord. 2001-05, 6-11-2001)

   A.   Applicability: This title shall apply to all private and public lands within the corporate limits of the town. All land use development projects will be subject to the required land use development review and approval process outlined in chapter 4 of this title.
   B.   Existing Land Uses, Buildings And Structures: Existing land uses, buildings, and structures authorized by the town before the enactment of this title will be considered legal land uses even if such uses are contrary to the current zoning ordinance.
   C.   Restrictive Covenants Or Agreements: Restrictive covenants or agreements associated with land subdivisions or other land sales will not supersede this title. Further, the town will not use this title as a tool for enforcing private restrictive covenants or agreements. (Ord. 2001-05, 6-11-2001)
