Any areas of land within the proposed subdivision which lie either wholly or in part within the floodplain of a river, stream, creek, or lake, or any other areas which are subject to flooding or inundation by storm water or have inadequate drainage, shall not be platted for any use as may increase danger to health, life or property. The proprietor may show by way of accurately engineered plans that a change to the topography in the proposed subdivision will eliminate flooding in the area in question and shall clearly demonstrate that any planned topographical change will not unduly aggravate the flood hazard beyond the limits of the proposed site condominium subdivision. If the City Council determines that a flood problem does exist, then it shall reject all or that part of the proposed site condominium subdivision lying within the floodplain.
