(2) Additional building and structure setbacks. The following additional setbacks apply, regardless of the classification of the water body: Setback from: Setback (in feet) Top of bluff 30 Unplatted cemetery 50 Right-of-way line of federal, state or county highway and local public and private roads 30* * Except for accessory buildings on lakeshore lots as regulated in this chapter and except for buildings and structures subject to less restrictive side yard adjacent to street setbacks as regulated in the various zoning districts. (3) Bluff impact zones. Buildings, structures and accessory facilities, except stairways, landings and lock boxes, must not be placed within bluff impact zones. (4) Uses without water-oriented needs. Uses without water-oriented needs must be located on lots or parcels without public waters frontage, or, if located on lots or parcels with public waters frontage, must either be set back double the normal ordinary high water level setback or be substantially screened from view from the water by vegetation or topography, assuming summer, leaf-on conditions. (5) Fences, docks, retaining walls. No fence shall be placed within the Shore Setback zone. Portions of dock located landward of the OHWL shall be considered as a landing, subject to the regulations for landings per section 78-1282. Retaining walls shall not be placed within the Shore Setback zone. (6) Average lakeshore setback. No principal or accessory building shall be located closer to the Ordinary High Water Line (OHWL) on a lakeshore lot than the average distance from the shoreline of existing principal buildings on adjacent lots; This does not apply to patios and other accessory structures less than 42 inches above existing grade, and/or stairways, lifts, landings, lockboxes, flagpoles and pump houses. Further, the average lakeshore setback shall apply only to classified lakes and shall not apply to tributaries. The average lakeshore setback line shall be a straight line connecting the most lakeward protrusions of the principal buildings on the immediately adjacent lakeshore lots. a. In situations where improvement is proposed on a lot adjacent to a vacant lot or right-of-way, the average lake shore setback shall be equivalent to the setback of the most lakeward protrusion of the principal building on the immediately adjacent improved lakeshore lot. b. In situations where the average lake shore setback line bisects the principal building located on either adjacent lot, the next most adjacent lake side point of the bisected principal building shall be used for determining the average lakeshore setback. If the line continues to bisect the principal building, the next most 86
