Quandary Village Subdivision:
ALL Subdivision created prior to 1996, please read:
Per Section 7105.01 A. any subdivision that was platted prior to February 26, 1996 did not address any wetlands or steep slopes within the subdivision process . Therefore buildable areas were platted in wetland areas and/or where 30% or greater slopes exist. This places the responsibility on the individuals developing the lot at the time for either new construction or exterior additions to verify that all soil disturbance complies with current water quality standards.

Design your structure and all improvements to avoid any disturbance of a wetland.
