The main policy statements have been retained exactly as they appear in the LISCMP. The policy and sub-policy explanations have been modified and expanded to reflect the unique conditions in the Bayville area, and new sub-policies have been added to address specific issues and opportunities that apply to Bayville.

These policies are based on the economic, environmental and cultural characteristics of the Village of Bayville waterfront area, and represent a balance between economic development and preservation, which will permit beneficial use of and prevent adverse effects on Bayville's coastal resources. The policies shall serve as the basis for local, State, and federal consistency determinations for activities affecting the LWRA. No policy shall be viewed as being more significant than another. These policies should be read in conjunction with the specific standards of the Village of Bayville local laws.
