§64.005 RSMo grants the
authority to establish planning and zoning in those areas
within five miles of certain lakes within the state of
Missouri. Following these rules, the boundary for the Camden
County Planning and Zoning was set, using six hundred and
forty five feet (645') above mean sea level, as stipulated
in the enabling legislation, as the interior boundary, and
section lines ranging from one half mile to five miles from
the (645') elevation forming the exterior boundary
The end result of this arrangement was an
area extending roughly one half to five miles from the
elevation line and encompassing approximately 244 (two
hundred forty-four) square miles. Also, as prescribed in
§64.170 RSMo, Camden County Planning and Zoning is not
allowed to address issues dealing with building codes.
§64.040 RSMo states
that the county planning commission (board) shall have the
power to make, adopt and may publish an official master plan
of the county for the purpose of bringing about coordinated
physical development in accordance with present and future needs.
This document is intended to address this concern and
provide guidance for the long range planning of Camden
County. |
