Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A white document displays a centered, underlined heading in large bold type, followed by several paragraphs of black text. Some terms within the paragraphs are bold and underlined, and the text discusses permits, construction, zoning districts, setbacks, and related requirements.

A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

ZONING REQUIREMENTS FOR CONSTRUCTION

Zoning Permit: required for all construction. This includes any structure that can be measured from the ground up, including but not limited to houses, additions, carports, garages, gazebos, pole barns, sheds, commercial buildings, storage buildings, “temporary” structures, decks, balconies, and porches. The moving of a building shall be considered the same as new construction.

Sign permits are required for signs advertising a business, development, or location of interest. Sign permits may be obtained at the township website or from the zoning administrator.

The allowed building size and setbacks for front, rear, and side yards vary, depending on the Zoning District where your property is located, can be found in the Township Zoning Ordinances. The zoning districts are “R-1”, “R-2”, “A”, “C-1”, “C-2”, “CD”, and “PR”. Providing the Tax or Parcel identification number to the Zoning Administrator, will facilitate determining the correct zoning district. The number will be in the format for Paine Twp. 15-012-____-___-___ and St. James Twp. 15-013-____-___-___. You can obtain a copy of the correct zoning district, and a permit application, at the township website, or from the zoning administrator.

If the construction is within 500 ft of a body of water you must apply for a soil erosion permit. Permits are issued by the Charlevoix County Soil Erosion control officer.

If the construction is for a residence you need to apply for well and septic permits. Permits are issued by the Health Department of Northwest Michigan, located in Charlevoix.

Most, but not all construction requires a building permit. Building Permits are issued by the Charlevoix County Building Safety Department, located in Charlevoix. The building department will not issue a permit, without an approved Zoning Permit.

Not observed in the image — supplied by the archive's own catalogue, and repeated here so the two stay distinguishable.

The catalogue record identifies this as a photograph posted to the Beaver Island Association Facebook page by Beaver Island Association on 2022-04-11 at 18:00:40. The record gives the source URL, dimensions of 2006 × 886 pixels, and credits the image to individual posters.

Why this archive publishes it. Public Facebook groups and pages run by island organisations and residents. Each item credits the poster by name and links to the original post. Removal on request.

Material goes off the web without anyone deciding that it should: a host lapses, a gallery is retired, a link stops resolving. Holding a copy — with its provenance, its checksum and its holder's terms recorded beside it — is much of why this archive exists. If you are looking for something whose original has since gone, write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com and a full-size copy of what is held here will be sent to you.

Recorded verbatim from the provenance sidecar taken at retrieval — this archive does not restate a holder's terms in its own words, does not add a restriction the holder did not state, and does not abridge one.

The archive holds its own copy of that file and will supply it on request; it is not re-served here, because the holder serves it better and a second copy is a second thing to go stale.
