The use of wetlands and the alteration of wetlands within the shoreland area of the Village of Kimberly shall be in full compliance with the terms of this chapter and other applicable local, state or federal regulations. (However, see §
508-13 of this chapter for the standards applicable to nonconforming uses.) All permitted development shall require the issuance of a zoning permit unless otherwise expressly excluded by a provision of this chapter.
Unless specifically exempted by law, all cities, villages, towns
and counties are required to comply with this chapter and obtain all
necessary permits. State agencies are required to comply if § 13.48(13),
Wis. Stats., applies. The construction, reconstruction, maintenance
and repair of state highways and bridges by the Wisconsin Department
of Transportation are exempt when § 30.2022, Wis. Stats.,
applies.
In their interpretation and application, the provisions of this
chapter shall be held to be minimum requirements and shall be liberally
construed in favor of the municipality and shall not be deemed a limitation
or repeal of any other powers granted by the Wisconsin Statutes. Where
a provision of this chapter is required by a standard in Ch. NR 117,
Wis. Adm. Code, and where the chapter provision is unclear, the provision
shall be interpreted in light of the Ch. NR 117, Wis. Adm. Code, standards
in effect on the date of the adoption of this chapter or in effect
on the date of the most recent text amendment to this chapter.
