19.230.010 - Purpose.

The Water Course Overlay Zone (WC) is established to clearly identify and designate areas of the City as floodways, stream channels and areas that are subject to periodic flooding and accompanying hazards, and that should be kept free from particular structures or improvements that may endanger life or property or significantly restrict the carrying capacity of the designated floodway or stream channel. The Water Course Overlay Zone may be applied to any underlying base zone and may be applied in conjunction with other overlay zones.
