(A) Findings. The Village Board finds runoff from construction sites carries a significant amount of sediment and other pollutants to the waters of the state and the village.
(B) Purpose. It is the purpose of this chapter to preserve the natural resources; to protect the quality of the waters of the state and the village and extraterritorial jurisdictional area; and to protect and promote the health, safety, and welfare of the people to the extent practicable by minimizing the amount of sediment and other pollutants carried by the runoff or discharge from the construction site to lakes, streams, and wetlands.
