Article 4: Revised definition of the Highest Observable Tide Level

Are you in favor of the adoption of Amendment No. 3 as proposed by the Planning Board for the Hampton Zoning Ordinance as follows?

Amend Article II – Districts. Section 2.3.2 Wetland Conservation District Ordinance to revise the definition and delineation for the Highest Observable Tide Line to be consistent with the NH Department of Environmental Services Wetland Bureau. This revision includes removing two outdated Appendices.

What It Means: This Article changes how the Highest Observable Tide Line (HOTL) is defined and delineated, and makes the definition consistent with the NH Dept. of Environmental Services. The previous definition was based on outdated manuals that are no longer relevant.
