Abstract
This polygon data layer represents zoning for the City of Superior in Douglas County, Wisconsin in 2011. [Zoning districts are established to promote compatible patterns of land use within the city limits. Zoning districts also establish site development regulations and performance standards appropriate to the purposes and the uses allowed in each district. Distinct zoning districts exist for residential, office, retail and industrial uses. Furthermore, specific use restrictions, site development regulations or performance standards may apply to zoning districts combined with special overlay or combining districts. As part of the zoning process, appropriate land uses for an area are identified based on such factors as the intensity, density, height of a proposed project, surrounding land uses, traffic impacts and access to a site, environmental concerns and overall compatibility. Zoning changes may be required for a change of land use or alteration of a building or site within the city limits.]
Purpose
This layer is intended for reference and mapping purposes, and may be used for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production, or to provide a basemap to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data. [More specifically, zoning requirements are adopted for the following purposes: .. To lessen congestion in the streets. .. To guide development in accordance with existing and future needs. .. To provide adequate light and air. .. To ensure safety from fire, panic, and other dangers. .. To facilitate the economical and adequate provision of public facilities, such as transportation, water, sewerage, education, recreation, sanitation, and other public requirements. .. To avoid undue concentration of the population. .. To sustain the stability of neigh- borhoods. .. To protect property against blight and depreciation. .. To conserve the value of land and buildings. .. To secure economy in government expenditures. .. To encourage the most appropriate use of land and structures.]
