<br /> SECTION 6. Orono City Code Chapter 78, Section 78-1610, is amended by deleting and
<br /> adding the following language:
<br /> "Sec. 78-1610. -Alteration of wetlands.
<br /> (a) No alteration of land within a wetland overlay district or an existin� established
<br /> wetland buffer is allowed without a wetlands alteration permit, subject to
<br /> recommendation by the planning commission and approval of the city council.
<br /> The planning commission must hold a public hearing after notifying the property
<br /> owners within 350 feet of the property on which the proposed alteration will
<br /> occur. Activities that constitute an alteration regulated by this section include
<br /> changes to the size, depth or contour of the wetlands or its existing established
<br /> buffer, dredging, or alterations of wetlands or buffer vegetation. Alterations do
<br /> not include wetland planting or the selective clearing or pruning of trees or
<br /> vegetation that are dead, diseased, noxious weeds or similar hazards. A wetland
<br /> alteration permit is not required when a wetland district is rezoned to another
<br /> zoning classification.
<br /> (b) Alteration of land within a wetland overlay district will only be allowed if water
<br /> storage is provided in an amount compensatory to that removed. Unless otherwise
<br /> approved by the city council, compensatory wetland area must be provided within
<br /> the same subwatershed district as the wetland being altered. In determining the
<br /> appropriateness of an alteration request, the city council will consider the size of
<br /> the total wetland district, the magnitude of the area proposed for alteration, the
<br /> aesthetic, hydrological and ecological effect, the type and function of wetlands
<br /> involved, and such other factors as may be appropriate in order to provide the
<br /> maximum feasible protection to the wetlands. Application for a wetlands
<br /> alteration permit must be accompanied by such information as required by the
<br /> city, including:
