I. New developments will not change the flow of flood or other
surface drainage waters so that other properties become more susceptible
to damage;
2. New developments will not create special hazards or
nuisances when flooded; and
3. New buildings and major improvements to existing buildings
will not be subject to damage by the base flood.
E. No development in the SFHA shall create a damaging or poten-
tially damaging increase in flood heights or velocity.
I. For development proposals located in an identified floodway
or within a riverine SFHA where the floodway has not yet been identified,
the following rule shall apply: The city engineer shall review the develop-
ment plans to discern if:
a. Anew obstruction to flood flows would be creoted;
b. The project will involve a channel crossing such as a
bridge or pipeline; or
c. The project will modify the shape of the channel.
If any of these three situations will result from the project,
the applicant shall be required to obtain a permit from the Illinois Depart-
ment of Transportation, Division of Water Resources, issued pursuant to III.
Rev. Stat., Ch. 19, sec. 70. The city engineer shall not issue a development
permit unless the applicant has obtained either a Section 70 permit or a
"waiver of permit required" from the Division of Water Resources.
2. For development proposals located in a flood fringe,
"AO zone", or "AH zone" identified as such on a SFHA map or in a lake-
front floodplain, ponding area, area of sheet flow, or other SFHA not
subject to overbank flooding from an identified channel, the requirement of
subsection E.1 of this section shall not apply.
F. No development in the SFHA shall include locating or storing
chemicals, explosives, buoyant materials, flammable liquids, pollutants, or
other hazardous or toxic materials below the FPE unless such materials are
stored in a storage tank or flood proofed building constructed according to
the requirements of this chapter.
G. New replacement sanitary sewer lines and on-site waste disposal
system may be permitted providing all manholes or other aboveground
openings located below the FPE are watertight.
_ 18.36.070 Building regulations.
A. In addition to the damage prevention requirement of Section
18.36.060, all buildings to be located in the SFHA shall, except where
580 VOLUME L
provided herein, be constructed at an elevation not lower than the base
flood elevation plus one foot, otherwise known as the flood protection
elevation (FPE) and shall be protected from flood damage below the FPE.
This building protection requirement applies to the following situations:
I. Construction or placement of a new building valued at more
than one thousand dollars;
2. Improvements made to an existing building that increase the
first floor area by more than fifty percent;
3. Reconstruction, repairs or improvements made to a damaged
building that are valued at or more than fifty percent of the value of the
building before the damage occurred; and
4. Installing a mobile home on a new site or a new mobile home
on an existing site. This building protection requirements does not apply to
returning a mobile home to the same site it formerly lawfully occupied.
B. This building protection requirement may be met by any one of
the following methods:
I. A building may be constructed on permanent land fill
in
accordance with the following:
a. The area to be filled shall be cleared of all standing
trees, brush, down timber, trash, and other growth or objects
unsuitable for use as foundation material.
b. The fill shall be placed in layers no greater than one foot
deep before compaction.
c. The surface of the fill shall be at or above the FPE. The
fill shall extend at least ten feet beyond the foundation of the
building before sloping below the FPE.
d. The fill shall be protected against erosion and scour
during flooding by vegetation cover, rip rap, or bulkheading. If
vegetative cover is used, the slopes shall be no steeper than
three horizontal to one vertical.
e. The fill shall not adversely affect the flow of surface
drainage from or onto neighboring properties.
f. The city engineer shall maintain a record of the as-built
elevation of the lowest floor of the building.
2. A building may be elevated in accordance with the follow-
ing:
a The building or improvements shall be elevated on stilts,
piles, walls, crawl space, or other foundation that is permanently
VOLUME L 581
open to floodwaters and not subject to damage by hydrostatic
pressures.
b. The foundation and supporting members shall be
anchored, shaped and aligned so as to minimize exposure to
known hydrodynamic forces such as current, waves, and floating
debris. All mobile homes to be placed within Zone A on the
Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) shall be anchored to resist
flotation, collapse, or lateral movement by providing over-the-
top and frame ties to ground anchors. Specific requirements
shall be that:
I. Over-the-top ties be provided at each of the four
corners of the mobile home, with two additional ties per side
at intermediate locations and mobile homes less than fifty
feet long requiring one additional tie per side;
2. Frame ties to be provided at each corner of the home
with five additional ties per side at intermediate points and
mobile homes less than fifty feet long requiring four addi-
tional ties per side;
3. All components of the anchoring system be capable of
carrying a force of four thousand eight hundred pounds; and
4. Any additions to the mobile home be similarly
anchored.
c. All areas below the FPE shall be constructed of
materials resistant to flood damage. The bottom of the joists of
the lowest floor and all utility meters shall be located at or
above the FPE.
d. The city engineer shall maintain a record of the as-built
elevation of the lowest floor.
e. No area below the FPE shall be used for storage of items
or materials subject to flood damage unless such items or
materials are declared "property not covered" by a Standard
Flood Insurance Policy of the National Flood Insurance Program.
f. Any future alteration of the area below the FPE that
violates the requirements of subsection B2 of this section shall
be deemed a violation of this chapter. The city engineer shall
inform the applicant that any such alteration is considered a
willful act to increase flood damages and therefore will cause
coverage by a Standard Flood Insurance Policy to be suspended.
g. No mobile home may be placed on a new site located
within an identified floodway.
582 VOLUME L
3. A nonresidential building may be floodproofed in accordance
with the following:
a. A registered professional engineer shall certify that the
building has been designed so that below the FPE, the structure _
and attendant utility facilities are watertight and capable of
resisting the affects of the base flood. The building design shall
take into account flood velocities, duration, rate of rise, hydro-
static and hydrodynamic forces, the effects of buoyancy, and
impacts from debris or ice.
b. Floodproofing measures shall be operable without human
intervention and without an outside source of electricity.
c. The city engineer shall maintain the engineer's certifi-
cate and a record of the as-built elevation to which the building
was floodproofed.
C. The city council shall take into account flood hazards to the
extent that they are known, in all official actions related to land manage-
ment, use and development:
I. The city council shall not approve any annexation agreement
or plat of subdivision located outside the corporate limits unless such
agreement or plat is in accordance with the provisions of this chapter. The
city engineer shall obtain the best available SFHA maps and data for the
unincorporated areas.
2. New subdivisions, mobile home parks, and planned unit
developments (PUDs) shall meet the requirements of this chapter. Plats or
plans for new subdivision, mobile home parks, and planned unit develop-
ments (PUDs) shall include a signed statement by a registered professional
engineer that the plat or plans account for changes in the drainage or
surface waters in accordance with the Plat Act (III. Rev. Stat., 1979,
Ch. 109, par. 2).
3. Plats or plans for new subdivisions, mobile home parks, and
planned unit developments (PUDs) shall display the following flood data:
a. The boundary of the SFHA;
b. The boundary of the floodway, if shown on available
SFHA maps;
c. Easements of lands dedicated to the city for access for
channel maintenance purposes; and
d. The FPE for each building site. Where the base flood
elevation is not available from an existing study filed with the
Illinois State Water Survey, the applicant shall be responsible for
calculating the FPE and submitting it to the State Water Survey
for review and approval as best available elevation data.
VOLUME L 583
4. Plans for the development activities to be undertaken by the
city in the SFHA shall be reviewed by the city engineer to ensure that they
comply with this chapter. Except as exempted by law, no other local
government shall commence any development activity in the SFHA without
first obtaining a development permit from the city engineer.
5. The planning department shall take the following into con-
sideration when preparing or revising the comprehensive plan, community
development program, housing assistance plan, and other land use or
development programs:
a. Preserving SFHA land for open space uses such as
farming or recreation;
b. Acquiring and removing frequently flooded buildings;
c. Prohibiting hospitals, water treatment plants, natural gas
storage and other critical or especially hazardous facilities from
locating in the SFHA;
d. Identifying the elevations of the base flood and past
floods at entrances to public buildings, on street signs, or other
prominent locations; and
e. Other flood hazard mitigation or floodplain management
activities that could help accomplish the purposes of this
chapter.
18.36.080 Stormwater detention areas--Purpose and findings.
A. It is recognized that many of the receiving streams and lowland
areas within the city do not have the capacity to receive and convey the
increased stormwater runoff resulting from urbanization occurring in many
areas. These receiving streams or lowlands are subject to periodic inunda-
tion which results in a growing rate of property damage.
B. It is the intent of this section to require developers to partici-
pate in providing detention area storage to eliminate excessive runoff
during heavy storm periods. Other control methods which would be accept-
able to regulate the rate of stormwater discharge include detention on flat
roofs, parking lots, streets, lawns, underground storage, and oversized
storm sewers with restricted outlets.
C. It is recognized that in order to better serve the long-range
interests of the city, comprehensive basin-wide planning for stormwater
control shall be followed as determined by the city engineer. This compre-
hensive drainage plan may require that a single large detention area serve
several parcels as determined by the city engineer. Comprehensive basin-
wide drainage planning is for more beneficial than individual on-site deten-
tion, although on-site detention does provide protection and is acceptable
for compliance with this chapter.
584 VOLUME L
18.36.090 Stormwater detention areas--Requirements.
Pursuant to the provisions of this chapter, no final plat shall be
approved unless detention of stormwater runoff is provided as set forth in
the following criteria:
A. A combination of storage and controlled release of stormwater
runoff is required for all commercial developments exceeding two acres in
area; and for all residential developments exceeding five acres in area.
However, a residential development of five acres or less must have an
adequate outlet as determined by the city engineer. If the outlet is not
adequate, then detention, as determined by the city engineer, will be
required to store that portion of the runoff exceeding the outlet capacity.
B. The release rate of stormwater from all developments requiring
detention shall not exceed the stormwater runoff rate from the area in its
natural undeveloped state. The city will accept a release rate of not
greater than that calculated from a storm of five-year frequency with a
runoff coefficient of 0.15.
C. Drainage systems shall have adequate capacity to bypass through
9 Y Y 9
the development the flow from all upstream areas for a storm of five-year
frequency assuming that the land is in a fully developed state under present
zoning or zoning proposed under a comprehensive plan. The bypass flow
rate shall be computed utilizing a runoff coefficient of not less than 0.45.
An allowance will be made for upstream detention when such upstream
detention and release rate has previously been approved by the city and
that evidence of its construction can be shown.
D. The detention storage volume to be provided will be calculated
on the basis of the one-hundred-year storm, for any and all durations, from
the fully developed drainage area tributary to the reservoir, less that
volume discharged during that same duration at the approved release rate.
E. Sample calculations reflecting the provisions of this section will
be furnished by the city engineer upon request."
Section 2. That all ordinances or parts of ordinances in conflict with the provi-
sions of this ordinance be and are hereby repealed.
Section 3. That this ordinance shall be in full force and effect ten days after its
passage and publication in the manner provided by law.
