Loudoun Mountainside Overlay District 1993

Metadata The Mountainside Development Overlay District is a zoning overlay district administered by the Department of Building and Development. Mountainside classifications are based upon the following criteria: critical elevation, debris flow (slippage) potential, groundwater recharge, soils, slope, and forest values. Critical elevation areas are determined from the County's digital topography, soil and slope values are based upon data, the County's soil layer, and forested areas are based upon the digital forest data. This original MDOD replaces the voided layer implemented in 2003 (see disclaimer above). Purpose: The Mountainside Development Overlay District is a zoning overlay district (see Section 4-1600 of the 1993 Loudoun County Zoning Ordinance) and regulates development on the mountainsides of the County. Mountainside data should be used for general planning purposes only and is not intended for use in delineating specific use or suitability of soils for a particular site. Areas prone to debris flow (slippage) may not be accurately delineated. The Department of Building and Development is responsible for final clearance and interpretation on zoning/building permits and land development applications for the Mountainside Development Overlay District.

元数据：山地开发覆盖区（Mountainside Development Overlay District）是由建筑与发展部（Department of Building and Development）管理的分区覆盖区划。山地分类依据以下标准：临界海拔、泥石流（滑坡）潜在风险、地下水补给、土壤、坡度及森林资源价值。临界海拔区域依据本县数字地形数据划定，土壤与坡度数据基于本县土壤图层，林区则依据数字森林数据确定。本版MDOD取代了2003年实施的失效图层（详见上文免责声明）。

用途：山地开发覆盖区属于分区覆盖区划（详见1993年劳登县分区条例第4-1600条），对本县山地范围内的开发活动进行监管。山地数据仅可用于通用规划用途，不得用于划定特定地块的土地用途或土壤适宜性。易发生泥石流（滑坡）的区域可能无法被精准划定。建筑与发展部负责对山地开发覆盖区的分区/建筑许可及土地开发申请作出最终审批与解读。
