Title: |
Legal Non-Conforming Uses and Setbacks |
Text: |
"2.4 Legal Non-Conforming Uses and Setbacks. Section 90-122(b) of LPLUC establishes certain setback requirements. In some instances, existing minor oil and gas facilities which initially met such requirements would not meet the requirements if a current application were filed due to (i) the encroachment of other development into the setback area, (ii) because the regulation was not in effect when the original installation occurred or (iii) because a waiver previously was obtained. ... the County agrees that in those instances where the setback requirements of Sections 90-122 (b)(l) and (2) cannot be met currently, the County will consider the use of the existing Well Pad site a legal nonconforming use not subject to the requirements of Sections 90-122 (b)(l) and (2). provided that the degree of the nonconformity is not in any way increased by the placement of the Exploratory Well on the existing Well Pad site." |
