Section 22-23-10-101

Guidelines for Islands and Dunes - Any structure should blend visually with the natural landscape and should not extend above the natural silhouette of the island, excluding lighthouses and aids to navigation. Except for low, visually unobstructing access facilities such as piers, structures should not be built seaward of primary dunes, and should not destroy primary dune vegetation. New development should not destroy dune vegetation, prevent natural movement of sand, or conflict with the visual dune forms. Vehicular and pedestrian traffic in dune areas should be channeled to those locations designed to handle the usage.
