Drainage channels and floodplains, which exist and which are indicated in the Long-Range Plan, are essential for the maintenance of the health, safety and general welfare of the people of the Village. Any encroachment, filling, or destruction of these drainage channels or floodplains is a violation of this Ordinance; provided, however, that this shall not prevent development of property, when adequate facilities, as determined by the Zoning Officer, are provided to maintain the prime purpose of the drainage channel or flood plain, i.e., the uninterrupted flow of surface water. Said development shall be, among other things, done in compliance with all applicable Village regulations. (Ord. 21-2020. Passed 12-14-20.)
