1177.14 FLOOD HAZARD AREAS OR AREAS WITH POOR DRAINAGE.
   In order to protect the health, safety, and general welfare of the public, the Village Planning Commission may reject any proposed subdivision located in an area subject to periodic flooding as determined and illustrated in studies or publications by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Ohio department of Natural Resources or other recognized documents or authorities or located in Algiers, Eel, Genesee, Henshaw, Muskego muck, Ross, Shoals, or Sloan soils. If the subdivision is located in an area having poor drainage, unacceptable drainage outlets or other adverse physical characteristics, or is located in Brookston, Lippincott, Montgomery, Paulding, Pewamo, Westland, or Wetzel soils, the Village Planning Commission may approve the subdivision provided the subdivider agrees to perform such improvements as will render the building sites acceptable for the intended use. Flood Hazard Permits are required for all construction located within Flood Hazard Areas.
