A. Purpose and intent.
(1) In accordance with the Fairport Comprehensive Plan,
the CD Canal District is established to provide unique opportunities
for the development and maintenance of uses within certain areas adjacent
to the Erie Canal in a manner which will protect unique and sensitive
environmental features that exist along the Canal, promote and encourage
public access to the Canal and encourage appropriate recreational
uses and other appropriate development within the Canal District.
(2) The Canal District permits certain recreational, open
space, business and residential uses which will generally benefit
from and enhance the unique aesthetic, recreational and environmental
attributes of the waterfront area.
(3) The Canal District is established for the following
purposes:

Ensure that development and land use activities
along the Erie Canal, in those locations identified in the Comprehensive
Plan, will occur in harmony with the environmental and ecological
systems that exist in those waterfront areas.
(b)
Promote the most desirable and appropriate use
of land and building development based upon consideration of soil
characteristics and other natural features, environmental constraints,
neighborhood characteristics and overall community needs; protect
the character of the district; conserve the value of lands and buildings;
and protect the tax revenue base.
(c)
Provide a desirable mix of recreational opportunities,
business uses and residential uses which complement each other and
take advantage of the unique location and characteristics of the Erie
Canal; encourage flexibility of design and preservation of unique
environmental features; and maintain the aesthetic quality of waterfront
areas by establishing appropriate dimensional requirements for each
use, thereby promoting a more creative and imaginative design for
development of waterfront areas than would be possible under more
conventional zoning.

Preserve, to the maximum extent practicable,
existing vegetation and natural features along the Erie Canal and
prevent, as much as possible, erosion, sedimentation and problems
