Activity 420 - Open Space Preservation (OSP, DR NFOS LZ OS! When identifying OSP parcels, be sure to identify and count only the portion of open space that is within the SFHA. Remember to remove Federal Lands and waterbodies greater than 10 acres as well as large areas of impervious surface. Add a note to the open space map to indicate buildings, parking lots and impervious surfaces were removed from the sites identified as open space. ❑ For Open Space Preservation (OSP) credit, provide a master list of all parcels preserved as open space. Identify the total acreage of the parcel as well as the area of open space within the SFHA. Organize the list by acreage from largest to smallest parcel. Include the parcel owner and land use designation. Include a unique identifier in the first column of the list and use the identifier on the map requested below. ❑ Provide a map (or set of maps) showing the jurisdictional boundaries (do not include UGA or UGB), the SFHA and OSP parcels marked with the unique identifier used in the list above. The map must include a legend showing the total acreage of SFHA, OSP, DR, NFOS, LZ5 and LZ10 (if applicable). K For each parcel that is preserved as open space because of private ownership or because of a regulatory requirement, provide the documentation that shows the owner will keep the parcel in open space or the ordinance language that prohibits structures, fill and storage of material in part or all of the floodplain. El If the OSP parcel is Deed Restricted (DR), provide a qualifying deed showing future development will not be allowed. Mark the deed with the unique identifier from the master list. ❑ If the OSP parcel qualifies for Natural Functions Open Space (NFOS) credit, provide a document that describes the natural floodplain functions of the parcel. This can be a plan, a report prepared by a qualified agency or a letter signed by a professional with a background in the field of natural science (see NFOS 1-4 in the Manual). ❑ For Low Density Zoning (LZ) credit, make sure LZ areas do not overlap with OSP areas. When possible, use the same parcel list and map to show sites where zoning is limited to 1 dwelling per 5 -acre lot (LZ5) or 1 dwelling per 10+ acre lots (LZ10).
