(A) Establishment of overlay districts. The overlay districts noted below have been established to provide additional development standards that respond to unique characteristics of the properties to which they apply. The overlay districts will assist Hancock County in providing for the public welfare and accomplishing the goals of the Comprehensive Plan. The development of properties which are located in one or more overlay districts shall be subject to the requirements of both the overlay district(s) and the underlying district in which they are located. The following overlay zoning districts shall apply to properties in the jurisdiction of the Hancock County Area Plan Commission as specified in the description of each district in this subchapter.
(1) | WP-OL | Wellfield Protection. |

(3) | AP-OL | Airport. |
(4) | V-OL | Rural Village. |
(5) | Shirley Overlay. |
(B) Effect of planned unit development district. All planned unit developments shall be consistent with the requirements of §§ 156.050 et seq. Planned unit developments shall not be subject to the requirements of any overlay district, unless otherwise specified as an element of the planned unit development detailed plan.
(C) Land uses. All land uses which are permitted, non-permitted or a special exception use in any underlying zoning district to which an overlay district is applied shall remain permitted, non-permitted, or special exception uses unless otherwise specified by the applicable overlay district(s).
(D) Lot, yard, and development standards. Any lot, yard, and development standards established by an overlay district shall apply as follows:
