I don't know the rationale for the rule. But if the rule was published before owners bought those properties, then they knew what they were buying, and therefore it is fair. Presumably this is one reason that island land values are lower than other waterfront, and this is reflected in tax assessments

If permanent residence was acquired before the zoning change, and maintained to the current day, then it would be grandfathered.
