The right is reserved to disapprove any subdivision which is subject to poor drainage. However, if the subdivider agrees to make improvements as will make the area safe for residential occupancy, the subdivision may be approved, subject however to the approval of the Engineer and in accordance with state statutes. No land shall be subdivided which is held unsuitable by the Council for reasons of flooding, inadequate drainage, water supply or sewage treatment facilities. All lots within the flood plain districts shall contain a building site at or above the regulatory flood protection elevation. All subdivisions shall have water and sewage disposal facilities that comply with the provisions of this chapter and have road access both to the subdivision and to the individual building sites no lower than two feet below the regulatory flood protection elevation.
