Title: |
Legal Non-Conforming Uses and Setbacks |
Text: |
"2.4. Setbacks and Pad Drilling. Section 90-122(b) of LPLUC establishes
certain setback requirements. The county recognizes that in some instances, existing minor oil and gas facilities which initially met the setback requirements of this section do not currently meet the requirements due to (i) the encroachment of other development into the setback area, (ii) the facility is a nonconforming uses, as defined in this chapter, due to a failure to meet current setback requirements; or (iii) because a waiver previously was obtained. In those instances, where the setback requirements of this paragraph cannot be met, the use of the existing well pad site may be considered for siting of a new well, provided that the placement of the new well's wellhead is not closer to the nearest lot or property line or building structure for human occupancy than the existing well's wellhead." |
