water level for all years for which data is available. Buffer setback distances <br /> measured from the line of ordinary high water are as follows: <br /> Minimum Buffer Setbacks from Ordinary High Water <br /> Water feature Buffer setback <br /> Perennial, within floodway 75 feet <br /> Perennial, outside floodway 50 feet <br /> Intermittent or seasonal 25 feet - <br /> (3) Contiguous riparian areas which extend landward from the water feature beyond <br /> the buffer setback area, as defined in this overlay zone. <br /> (a) Riparian habitat, riparian area. Lands adjacent to water features which <br /> contain primarily native vegetation including species that typically grow in <br /> wet areas (wet area species). For purposes of this land use code "wet area <br /> species" are those species listed as "facultative," "facultative wetland," or <br /> "obligate wetland" species in the most recent U.S. Fish and Wildlife <br /> Service "list of plant species that occur in wetlands" for the Eugene area. <br /> Where large forested areas adjoin a water feature, only that portion which <br /> contains wet area species is considered riparian. <br /> (b) The city shall maintain maps of regulated riparian areas, and make them <br /> available to the public. These maps will be used to identify the extent of <br /> the riparian area unless the applicant can demonstrate through detailed <br /> inventory information (including maps showing the location and species of <br /> vegetation growing in the disputed area) that the city's maps are in error. <br /> 9.4730 /WP Waterside Protection Overlay Zone Land Use and Permit Requirements. <br /> Within the /WP overlay zone there are 2 categories of uses: those allowed by the base <br /> zone or special area zone outside of the /WP area, and a more restrictive list of uses <br /> allowed within the /WP area. <br /> (1) Outside the /WP Area.
