No plat of lands subject to periodic or frequent flooding or standing water shall be approved, unless a suitable agreement is entered into with the city by the person seeking approval of a plat of the lands, that adequate provisions will be made to prevent any periodic or frequent flooding or standing water thereon. The City Commission may require the party seeking approval of a plat to raise and fill the lands to prescribed heights and contours and to provide drainage canals or watercourses, culverts, gutters, sewers, and other drainage facilities necessary to adequately drain the platted lands.
