[Added 7-16-2018 by Ord.
No. 0521-18-01]
A. Purpose. The residents of the City of New Lisbon depend exclusively
on groundwater for a safe drinking water supply. Certain land use
practices and activities can seriously threaten or degrade groundwater
quality. The purpose of this section is to establish a groundwater
protection overlay district to institute land use regulations and
restrictions within a defined area which contributes water directly
to the municipal water supply providing protection for the aquifer
and municipal water supply of the City of New Lisbon and promoting
the public health, safety and general welfare of City residents.
B. Authority. Statutory authority of the City to enact these regulations
was established by the Wisconsin Legislature in 1983, Wisconsin Act
410 (effective May 11, 1984), which specifically added groundwater
protection, in § 59.97(1) (which has since been renumbered
as § 59.69(1) and § 62.23(7)(c), Wis. Stats.,
to the statutory authorization for county and municipal planning and
zoning to protect the public health, safety and welfare. In addition,
§ 62.23(7)(am), Wis. Stats., the City has the authority
to enact this section, effective in the incorporated areas of the
City, to encourage the protection of groundwater resources.
C. Application. The regulations specified in this wellhead protection
section shall apply within the area surrounding each municipal water
supply well that has been designated as a "wellhead protection area"
by the City in the most recent and up-to-date wellhead protection
plan, and are in addition to the requirements in the underlying zoning
district, if any. If there is a conflict between this section and
the Zoning Ordinance, the more restrictive provision shall apply.
NOTE: Wellhead protection areas are derived from hydrologic
studies and are based on the area surrounding a well where groundwater
takes five years or less to travel from the land surface to the pumping
well.
|
D. Groundwater Protection Overlay District. The location and boundaries
of the zoning districts established by this section are set forth
in the City of New Lisbon's most recent and up-to-date wellhead protection
plan on the map titled "Wellhead Protection Area" contained in the
Wellhead Protection Plan [on file with the City of New Lisbon office]
and incorporated herein and hereby made a part of this section. Said
figures, together with everything shown thereon and all amendments
thereto, shall be as much a part of this section as though fully set
forth and described here in this section and thus promotes public
health, safety, and welfare. The Groundwater Protection Overlay District
is intended to protect the groundwater recharge area for the water
supply from contamination.
