Municode Page 8 of 8 � In addition to meeting impervious coverage (hard cover) limits, setbacks, and other zoning standards in this article, the uses must be designed to incorporate topographic and vegetative screening of parking areas and structures. (2) Uses that require shortterm watercraft mooring for patrons must centralize these facilities and design them to avoid obstructions of navigation and to be the minimum size necessary to meet the need. (3) Uses that depend on patrons arriving by watercraft may use the minimum amount of signage and lighting necessary to convey needed information to the public, subject to the following general standards: ' a• No advertising signs or supporting facilities for signs may be placed in or upon public waters. Signs conveying information or safety messages may be placed in or on public waters by a public authority or under a permit issued by the county sheriff. b• Signs may be placed, when necessary, within the shore setback zone if they are designed in size to be the minimum necessary to convey needed information. They must only convey the location and name of the establishment and the general types of goods or services available. The signs must not contain other detailed information such as product brands and prices, must not be located higher than ten feet above the ground, and must not exceed 32 square feet in size. If illuminated by artificial lights, the lights must be shielded or directed to prevent illumination out across public waters. �• The aggregate square footage of sign space per property shall not exceed the limitations on sign square footage as regulated in article X, division 4, of this chapter. d• Nonsign-related outside lighting may be located within the lakeshore setback zone or over public waters only if it is used primarily to illuminate potential safety hazards and is shielded or otherwise directed to prevent direct illumination out across public waters. This does not preclude use of navigational lights. (b) 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.
