\ <br />pNVTRQNMENT JUNE# 1980 <br />T\^•r-r- <br />DEVELOPMENT OR ALTERATION OP FLOODPLAINS WILL BE RESTRICTED. Most <br />of the City's identified floodplains are located along the shoreline <br />or within designated marshlands and will be protected by other pro­ <br />visions applicable to those areas. In addition# where floodplains <br />do exist on otherwise dry buildable land# construction# filling or <br />alteration will be strictly controlled so as to avoid flow restrictions, <br />to avoid flood level increases n other properties# and to avoid costly <br />flood damage or pollution dangers. <br />NATURAL RESOURCE INVESTIGATION WILL BE REQUIRED AS PART OF ALL <br />DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS. This will include topographical information, <br />soil analysis# drainage plans# vegetation plans# erosion control <br />measures and similar site data related to each project# whether public <br />or private. The extent of each such review will be determined“by <br />probable environmental impact. Greater detail will be required of <br />larger projects than of smaller ones. As proximity to Lake Minnetonka <br />or a major wetland increases# so will the care and concern increase <br />in direct proportion. <br />ON-SITE WATER RETENTION FACILITIES WILL BE REQUIRED AS PART OF ALL <br />RESIDENTIAL, COMMERCIAL OR INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS WHENEVER <br />NECESSARY TO MAINTAIN OR IMPROVE THE EXISTING STORM WATER RUNOFF <br />PATTERNS. Whenever a development's location# size# scope or hardcover <br />would tend to Increase the quantity of runoff# increase the speed of <br />runoff# or decrease the quality of runoff# that development will be <br />required to provide on-site retention facilities sufficient to maintain <br />the existing situation or to improve the resulting runoff by reducing <br />quantity# reducing speed and/or improving quality. No development will <br />be permitted to adversely Impact it's neighbors# or the City# by <br />changing drainage patterns or by otherwise adversely affecting storm <br />water drainage. <br />LAND USE AND DEVELOPMENT WILL NOT BE PERMITTED AT THE EXPENSE OF <br />ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION. No land will be permitted to be subdivided <br />or built upon which is held unsuitable by the City for the proposed <br />use because of flood hazard# inadequate drainage# soil formations <br />with severe limitations for development# severe erosion potential, <br />unfavorable topography# inadequate water supply or sewage disposal <br />capabilities# or any other feature likely to be harmful to the health# <br />safety# or welfare of the future residents of the proposed subdivision <br />or of the community. No land use will be allowed to adversely affect <br />the neighborhood's air or water resources nor will any use be permitted <br />to emit noise# dust# electrical or radiation pollution. <br />CMP 3-21
