§ 156.41 DEVELOPMENT PERMIT.
   (A)   No person, firm, corporation or governmental body not exempted by state law shall commence any development in a floodway without first obtaining a development permit from the Building Inspector and IDNR/OWR.
   (B)   Application for a development permit shall be made on a form provided by the Building Inspector. The application shall include the following information:
      (1)   Name and address of applicant;
      (2)   Site location (including legal description) of the property, drawn to scale, on the designated floodway map, indicating whether it is proposed to be in an incorporated or unincorporated area;
      (3)   Name of stream or body of water affected;
      (4)   Description of proposed activity;
      (5)   Statement of purpose of proposed activity;
      (6)   Anticipated dates of initiation and completion of activity;
      (7)   Name and mailing address of the owner of the subject property if different from the applicant;
      (8)   Signature of the applicant or the applicant’s agent;
      (9)   If the applicant is a corporation, the president or other authorized officer shall sign the application form;
      (10)   If the applicant is a partnership, each partner shall sign the application form;
      (11)   If the applicant is a land trust, the trust officer shall sign the name of the trustee by him or her as trust officer. A disclosure affidavit shall be filed with the application, identifying each beneficiary of the trust by name and address and defining the respective interests therein;
      (12)   Plans of the proposed activity shall be provided which include as a minimum:
         (a)   A vicinity map showing the site of the activity, name of the waterway, boundary lines, names of roads in the vicinity of the site, graphic or numerical scale, and north arrow;
         (b)   A plan view of the project and engineering study reach showing existing and proposed conditions including principal dimensions of the structure or work, elevations in mean sea level (1929 adjustment) datum or NGVD or North American Vertical Datum, adjacent property lines and ownership, drainage and flood control easements, location of any channels and any existing or future access roads, distance between proposed activity and navigation channel (when the proposed construction is near a commercially navigable body of water), designated floodway limit, floodplain limit, specifications and dimensions of any proposed channel modifications, location and orientation of cross-sections, north arrow and a graphic or numerical scale;
         (c)   Cross-section views of the project and engineering study reach showing existing and proposed conditions including principal dimensions of the work as shown in plan view, existing and proposed elevations, normal water elevation, ten-year frequency flood elevation, 100-year frequency flood elevation and graphic or numerical scales (horizontal and vertical);
         (d)   A soil erosion and sediment control plan for disturbed areas. This plan shall include a description of the sequence of grading activities and the temporary sediment and erosion control measures to be implemented to mitigate their effects. This plan shall also include a description of final stabilization and revegetation measures, and the identification of a responsible party to ensure post-construction maintenance; and
         (e)   A copy of the designated floodway map, marked to reflect any proposed change in the designated floodway location.
      (13)   Any and all other federal, state and local permits or approval letters that may be required for this type of development;
      (14)   Engineering calculations and supporting data shall be submitted showing that the proposed work will meet the permit criteria of § 156.42 of this chapter;
      (15)   If the designated floodway delineation, base flood or 100-year frequency flood elevation will change due to the proposed project, the application will not be considered complete until IDNR/OWR has indicated conditional approval of the designated floodway map change. No structures may be built until a letter of map revision has been approved by FEMA;
      (16)   The application for a structure shall be accompanied by drawings of the site, drawn to scale showing property line dimensions and existing ground elevations and all changes in grade resulting from any proposed excavation or filling, and floodplain and floodway limits; sealed by a registered professional engineer, licensed architect or registered land surveyor; the location and dimensions of all buildings and additions to buildings; and the elevation of the lowest floor (including basement) of all proposed buildings subject to the requirements of §§ 156.70 through 156.73 of this chapter; and
      (17)   If the proposed project involves a channel modification, the applicant shall submit the following information:
         (a)   A discussion of the purpose of and need for the proposed work;
         (b)   A discussion of the feasibility of using alternative locations or methods (see § 156.42(C)(9)(a) of this chapter) to accomplish the purpose of the proposed work;
         (c)   An analysis of the extent and permanence of the impacts each feasible alternative identified in § 156.42(C)(9)(a) of this chapter would have on the physical and biological conditions of the body of water affected; and
         (d)   An analysis of the impacts of the proposed project, considering cumulative effects on the physical and biological conditions of the body of water affected.
   (C)   The Building Inspector shall be responsible for obtaining from the applicant copies of all other federal, state and local permits and approvals that may be required for this type of activity.
      (1)   The Building Inspector shall not issue the development permit unless all required federal and state permits have been obtained.
      (2)   A registered professional engineer, under the employ or contract of the village shall review and approve applications reviewed under this section.
