No development shall occur on any land within a CFRA unless a CFRA Certificate of Compliance or a Stormwater Drainage Study has been approved by the city.
(b) No building permit shall be issued for any property that docs not have a CFRA Certificate of Compliance or a Stormwater Drainage Study approved by the city, unless the city has determined that the development is a minor project or grants a variance to the requirements of this division.
(c) Exemptions for minor projects. Minor projects can be permitted without requiring a CFRA Certificate of Compliance per the discretion of the Floodplain Administrator or their designee. The Floodplain Administrator, or their designee, will make the determination, in their sole discretion, as to whether a project will receive an exemption as a minor project.
