In order to protect the safety, health, and general welfare of the people of the City and environs, the Planning Commission will not approve the plat of any proposed subdivision located in an area subject to periodic floods. When a subdivision is located in an area having poor drainage or other adverse physical conditions, the Planning Commission may approve the plat of the proposed subdivision, provided that the subdivider complies with the City’s stormwater drainage regulations as contained in Chapter 1335 and agrees to perform such improvements as will, in the judgment of the Public Service Director, render the subdivision substantially safe and otherwise acceptable for residential use. The Planning Commission shall not approve any plat of any proposed subdivision without the review by the Public Service Director of the general stormwater drainage permit as outlined in Chapter 1335 and compliance thereof.
