Cross reference— Administration, ch. 2.

29-1. Administrator's responsibilities.#

This ordinance shall be enforced by the administrator who shall be appointed by the board of supervisors. The administrator, in specific cases, shall have the authority to grant variances from building setback requirements as provided for under article 30-7-6 of this ordinance. The administrator shall serve at the pleasure of the board.

(Ord. of 11-15-1995)

29-2. Permits granted prior to December 1, 1992; discontinued construction.#

Nothing contained herein shall require any change in the plans or construction of any building or structure for which a permit was granted prior to December 1, 1992. However, such construction must commence 30 days after this ordinance becomes effective. If construction is discontinued for a period of six months or more, further construction shall be in conformity with the provisions of this ordinance for the district in which the operation is located.

29-3. Interpretation.#

Unless district boundary lines are fixed by dimensions or otherwise clearly shown or described, and where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of any of the aforesaid district as shown on the zoning map, the following rules shall apply:

29-3-1.#

Where district boundaries are indicated as approximately following or being at right angles to the centerlines of street, highway, alleys, or railroad main tracks, such centerlines or lines at right angles to such centerlines shall be construed to be such boundaries as the case may be.

29-3-2.#

Where a district boundary is indicated to follow a river, creek or branch or other body of water, said boundary shall be construed to follow the centerline at low water or at the limit of the jurisdiction and, in the event of change in the shoreline, such boundary shall be construed as moving with the actual shoreline.

29-3-3.#

If no distance, angle, curvature description or other means is given to determine a boundary line accurately and the foregoing provisions do not apply, the same shall be determined by the use of the scale shown on said zoning map. In the case of subsequent dispute, the matter shall be referred to the board of zoning appeals which shall determine the boundary.

29-4. Fees.#

Fees, as allowed by Code of Virginia, § 15.2-2286(A)(6), for administrative review and processing of zoning permits, certificates of occupancy, site plans, rezoning requests, conditional use permits, amendments, public hearing advertising, and variances shall be determined by the board of supervisors after adoption of this ordinance.

29-5. Severability.#

Should any section or provision of this ordinance be decided by the courts to be unconstitutional or invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of the ordinance as a whole, or any part thereof other than the part so held to be unconstitutional or invalid.

29-6. Conflicting ordinances.#

All conflicting ordinances or parts thereof which are inconsistent with the provisions of this ordinance are hereby repealed.

29-7. Effective date.#

This Zoning Ordinance of Brunswick County, Virginia, shall be effective at and after 12:01 a.m., December 1, 1992.
