The zoning ordinance is enacted for the following purposes:
A. To promote and ensure the public health, safety and general welfare of the town and its residents;
B. To attain and implement the goals, objectives and policies of the general plan by providing a precise delineation of permitted land uses, precluding land-use conflicts, and by establishing general site development standards.
(Ord. 214 § 2(part), 1992)
17.02.200 - Consistency with general plan.#
The intent of the town is that this title be consistent with the general plan, and with any supplemental land use and community development policies which may be adopted by the town council. If this title becomes inconsistent with the general plan or such supplemental policies by reason of new or amended plans or policies, the intent of the town council is that this title be amended within a reasonable time so as to become or remain consistent with the new or amended plans or policies.
(Ord. 214 § 2(part), 1992)
17.02.300 - Conflicting provisions.#
This title shall be held to be the minimum requirement for the promotion of the public health, safety, comfort, convenience and general welfare. The zoning ordinance is not intended to interfere with, abrogate or annul any easement, covenant, or other agreement between parties. When this title imposes a greater restriction upon the use of land or buildings than are required by other ordinances, rules or regulations, or by easements, covenants or agreements, the provisions of this title shall control.
(Ord. 214 § 2(part), 1992)
17.02.500 - Relief from other provisions.#
Except as specifically provided, no provision of this title shall be construed as relieving any party to whom any permit, variance, or other authorization is issued from complying with any provision of state or federal law, or from any provision, ordinance, or regulation of the town requiring a license, franchise, or permit to conduct a particular business, activity or use.
(Ord. 214 § 2(part), 1992)
17.02.600 - Severability.#
If any portion of this title is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional, such determination shall not affect the validity or constitutionality of the remaining portions of the title. The town council expressly declares that this title and each portion thereof would have been adopted irrespective of the fact that any other portion of it may be found invalid or unconstitutional.
