14.6.4 Overlap or Conflict between Urban Transition Buffers established by Cary and buffers established by State of North Carolina or Federal Regulations

      (A)   In the event of an overlap or conflict between a General UTB and a Specialized UTB, the more restrictive buffer shall govern. It is the intent of Cary that General UTBs shall provide the minimum urban transition buffer for all properties located in Cary's zoning jurisdiction.

      (B)   In the event of an overlap or conflict between any buffer established by this Section and any buffer or other requirement established by another law, rule or regulation administered by the State of North Carolina or the Federal Government, the more restrictive law, rule or regulation shall govern.

      Table 14.6-1 below graphically depicts Cary's UTBs and their zones.
