This chapter establishes a procedure for the regulation of grading, filling, excavating or altering of the natural terrain or other aspects of the existing topography on property, including, but not limited to, the final grading of property, in the Village.
This chapter is established generally to prevent unnecessary flooding, to eliminate damage to real and personal property and to protect the public health, welfare and safety of the Village.
More specifically, this chapter is enacted to regulate the grading, filling, excavating or altering of final grading of individual parcels of land, as the grading affects the subject parcel, as well as that property directly or indirectly affected by the parcel, both public and private. The review of final grading plans, as specified in this chapter, will be the review of the individual parcel as the individual parcel relates to and affects, or is affected by, the balance of the subdivision, PUD or adjoining or adjacent property.
