Applications shall be filed with the Building Inspector and permits shall be issued before the creation of any pond. In the event the proposed pond shall involve a change of land contours, then the provisions of this chapter shall be followed, or, if it is a minor project in the opinion of the Municipal Engineer, it shall be governed by Section 1274.05. In no event shall any portion of a proposed pond be permitted within 75 feet of an abutting owner's property line. Permission for the creation of a pond within 75 feet of an abutting owner's property line may be granted only upon a special permit being approved by Council upon such terms and conditions as it may impose after obtaining the written recommendations and report of the Engineer regarding such request.
