designations a request for change of zone and/or
general plan amendment may need to be concurrently
reviewed.
B. No Facility shall be permitted within two thousand
(2,000) feet of any temporary or permanent residences,

identified as being within a one hundred (100) year
flood plane boundary established by FIRM or FEMA, or
in areas subject to flash floods, debris flow, selches
