Dear JAMES CHESNUTT:
Exemption Number —16-97
I have reviewed the information submitted to this office in your inquiry concerning the necessary
filing of an application for a minor development permit under the Coastal Area Management Act.
After making a site inspection on MARCH 17, 2016,1 have determined that the activity you propose
is exempt from needing a minor development permit as long as it remains consistent with your site
drawing dated MARCH 15, 2016, and meet the conditions specified below. Your project consists
of 150 SQ FT GAZEBO. If your plans should change and your project will no longer meet these
conditions, please contact me before proceeding.
Accessory Uses that are directly related to the existing dominant use and require no plumbing,
electrical or other service connections are exempt from the CAMA minor development permit
requirement if they meet the criteria set out below.
1. The development must not disturb a land area greater than 200 square feet.
2. The development must not involve removal, damage, or destruction of threatened or
endangered animal or plant species.
3. The development must not alter naturally or artificially created surface drainage
channels.
4. The development must not alter the landform or vegetation of a frontal dune.
5. The development must not be within 30 feet of normal high water level.
6. The development must be consistent with all applicable use standards and local land
use plans in effect at the time the exemption is granted.
This exemption to CAMA permit requirements does not alleviate the necessity of your obtaining
any other State, Federal or Local authorization. This exemption expires 90 days from the date of
the letter.
Sincerer,
