Environmental Reserve Land
Environmental reserve lands are intended to protect significant natural assets, prevent development in hazard-prone locations, and provide public access in and around lakes and rivers.
The County will manage environmental reserve lands as follows:
- Environmental reserve lands will be generally left in their natural condition as much as possible.
- Public trails may be developed where conditions are suitable.
- Along lakeshores and rivers, a limited number of public pathways and stairs may be permitted to allow safe access to the water.
A Special Use of Reserves Permit (SURP) will need to be completed and submitted to the County for authorization to proceed with requested activities.
