 "description": "<DIV STYLE=\"text-align:Left;\"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The Environmentally Sensitive Overlay District is related to, but different from the character districts.  This overlay district occurs in addition to the recommended character district and provides an additional layer of policy to be considered. It identifies lands that either contain important environmental resources that should be protected or where potential hazards should be avoided to protect future users and buildings.  Tailored mitigation strategies based on these features complement land in the Conservation Character District, which prohibits discretionary development. Property within the Environmentally Sensitive Overlay may be developed if concerns are appropriately managed, but some land in the district may be best left undeveloped.<\/SPAN><SPAN /><SPAN> The layer contains the following fields: <\/SPAN><\/P><UL><LI><P><SPAN>Overlay (Name) - Name of overlay<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI><LI><P><SPAN>Historic (Historic) - previous designation<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI><LI><P><SPAN>Date Changed (Date_Changed) - Date the layer was changed by City Council<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI><LI><P><SPAN>Comments (Comments) - reason for change, additional notes.<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI><\/UL><P><SPAN>This layer can only be changed by City Council action.
