§ 21.18.072. Limited commercial activity within habitat protection area.
Latest version.
The planning commission may issue a permit for activities to be conducted within or
using the habitat protection area as provided in this section. Permits are required
for commercial activities of the same nature as those allowed under KPB 21.18.065 for private non-commercial use upon conditions that the activity is limited to pedestrian
use over boardwalks, stair and docks necessary to alleviate the increased levels of
activity attendant to the commercial activity. A permit may not be issued unless the
planning commission determines the activity will be conducted in a manner that does
not result in significant erosion, sedimentation, damage to the habitat protection
district, an increase in ground or surface water pollution, and damage to riparian
wetlands and riparian ecosystems. In granting a permit, the planning commission may
establish such conditions on the development, use or operation of the activity or
facility for which the conditional use permit is granted as it determines necessary
to prevent significant erosion, sedimentation, damage to the habitat protection district,
an increase in ground or surface water pollution, and damage to riparian wetlands
and riparian ecosystems. The activity must be conducted on a portion of property adjacent
to the property within the habitat protection area for which the permit is sought.
