(A) The Town of Long Beach, Indiana original plat was recorded in February 1914 and the town was incorporated in 1921 as a planned residential resort waterfront recreational community. As such, the original plat of the town and subsequent Master Plan designated only three land uses; single-family residential, business and public (including public and semi-public recreation). In determining the boundaries of districts, and establishing regulations applicable to each district, due consideration and careful consideration has been given to existing conditions, the character of buildings erected in each district, the most desirable use of which the land in each district may be adapted, and the conservation of property values throughout the incorporated territory of the town.
(B) The town is divided into six zoning districts: five Single-Family Residential Districts and one Local Business District, and one Flood Hazard Overlay Zoning District.
