[Amended 10-22-2009 by Ord. No. 1301]
The wellhead protection area is intended to institute land use regulations and restrictions to protect the City of Muskego's municipal water supply and well fields and to promote the public health, safety and general welfare of the residents of the City of Muskego. Thus, the City adopts the separation distances and restricted land use practices per Ch. NR 811, Wis. Adm. Code, and any future changes that may occur.
The regulations specified by this district shall apply to all lands and/or structures that lie within the separation distances specified in conformance with Ch. NR 811, Wis. Adm. Code, of each City of Muskego municipal well within the City of Muskego corporate limits.
A. 
It is recognized that the actual wellhead protection areas are ever changing due to parcel reconfigurations and building placements. The overlay area shall be recognized on the City's Zoning Map by the location of the wells owned and maintained by the City along with the circles noting the maximum distance of 1,200 feet per Ch. NR 811, Wis. Adm. Code.
B. 
The prior mapping of wellhead protection areas is hereby repealed and recreated as set forth in the Zoning Map, which is hereby adopted.
