My lot in a subdivision has a vegetative buffer that is part of the stormwater treatment system. Can I use this area without violating the permit conditions?
A vegetative natural buffer is designed as part of the stormwater management system and as such is intended to be left in its natural state. You are not permitted to clear or otherwise impact the vegetation or flow of water. For example, you may not extend your fence, build any structure, park any vehicle, develop walking paths, cycling paths, ATV or other vehicular paths, or remove vegetation unless expressly permitted in the ERP permit, to list a few.
