From the ordinance

Temporary emergency housing may be placed on property when a disaster has been declared by the board of supervisors, the governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia, or the President of the United States in accordance with applicable state and federal law. A zoning permit shall be obtained before temporary emergency housing can be placed on the property. The administrator shall have the authority to waive certain zoning requirements, including setback requirements, on a temporary basis in order to provide for the needs of citizens impacted by the disaster provided that such waiver can be reasonably justified and do not violate floodplain or Chesapeake Bay requirements. The period for temporary placement of such structures shall be no more than 12 months, unless an extension is specifically authorized by the board of supervisors for an additional period of time to be set by the board. No action under these provisions shall authorize permanent improvements or establishing a use in violation of this ordinance or any other law.
