PUBLIC HEARING FOR REBUDGETING OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK
GRANT FUNDS
Planning Director Dahlstrom stated that the purpose of this
public hearing isto consider the proposal to rebudget the sum
of $180,953 from other projects to the 1993 Residential
Rehabilitation Grant Program. They believe that this amount
will take the program through 1994.
Dan .Miller, 155 South Gifford, requested that the $9000
allocated two years ago for repair to curbs and gutters not be
reallocated to the residential rehabilitation program.
Patricia Miller, 155 South Gifford, speaking on behalf of
Gifford Park Association, stated that she believes the goals of
the Community Development Block Grant program are similar to
Gifford ParkAssociation's goals. However, she sees. some
deficiencies in the rehabilitation program and requested that
the following changes be considered. First, all exterior
repairs to be subject to the Secretary of Interior guidelines
and that they apply whether the structure was built 200 years
ago or yesterday. Secondly, only structures which conform to
the zoning code be eligible for funds.
George Doscher,.220 South State Street, stated that he agreed
with much of what had already been stated. He recommends that
residential rehabilitation funds only be used for structures
with a permitted use status and that specific design standards
be required for residences within the Residence Conservation
District.
John Wentland, 1034 Hill. Avenue, stated that Centro de
Informacion has no objection to the $40,000 previously
designated for a youth center being rebudgeted for the
rehabilitation program and thanked the Council for its past
consideration of their organization.
Planning Director Dahlstrom responded to earlier comments and
stated that under the current program, legal, nonconforming
structures are eligible. Changing the policy could allow these
units to fall into disrepair. The great majority of the work
done under this program is basic code enforcement improvements.

Yearman, to close the public hearing. Yeas: Councilmembers

A. Authority.
This ordinance is adopted under the authority of the City
of Elgin.
B. Findings and Purpose.
1. The City of Elgin finds as follows:
a. That excessive quantities of soil are eroding
from areas that are undergoing development for
certain non-agricultural uses, including but not
limited to the construction of dwelling units,
commercial buildings.and industrial plants, the
building of roads and highways, the modification
and dredging of stream channels and drainageways,
and the creation of recreational facilities;
b. That the washing, blowing, and falling of eroded
soi.1 across and upon roadways endangers the
health and safety of users thereof by decreasing
vision and reducing traction of road vehicles;
C. That said soil erosion necessitates the costly
repairing of gullies, wash -out fills, roadway
ditches and embankments.
d. That said sediment from said soil erosion tends
to clog sewers, ditches, and other drainage
improvements, and to pollute and silt the
wetlands, rivers, streams, lakes, ponds, and
reservoirs;
e. That said sediment limits the use of water and
waterways for most beneficial purposes, by
promoting the growth of undesirable aquatic
weeds, destroying the habitat for fish and other
s
VOLUME LIX MARCH 23, 1994 121
desirable aquatic life, and that said sediment is
costly and difficult to remove; and
f. That said sediment reduces the channel capacity
of waterways and the storage capacity of
floodplains and natural depressions, resulting in
increased chances of flooding and unnecessary
risk to public health and safety.
2. The City of Elgin therefore declares that the purpose
of this ordinance is to safeguard person, protect
property, prevent damage to the environment, and to
promote the public welfare., by guiding and regulating
the design, construction, quality and use of materials
and maintenance of any development or other activity
which disturbs or breaks the. topsoil. or otherwise
results in the movement of earth on land situated in
the county. It is the intent of this ordinance that
the delivery of sediment from sites affected by land
disturbing activities be limited, as closely as
practicable, to that which would have occurred if land
had been left in its natural undisturbed state.
C. Applicability of Ordinance.
This ordinance applies to land disturbing and land
developing activities on lands within the boundaries and
jurisdiction of the City of Elgin.
D.. General Criteria and Standards.
The following general principles shall apply to any
movement of earth and a site development. plan and the granting
of a permit for the execution of said site development plan as
herein provided:
1. Development criteria.and standards:
a. Site development shall. be related to the
topography and soils of the site sous to create
the least potential for erosion-. Areas of steep
slopes where excavations and fills may be
required shall be avoided wherever possible, and
natural contours shall be followed as closely as
possible.

to protect areas exposed during development. .
j. Permanent vegetation and structures shall be
installed and functional as soon as practical
during development.
k. Those areas being converted from agricultural
purposes to other land uses shall be vegetated
with an appropriate protective cover prior to
development.
1. All waste generated as a result of site
development activity shall be properly disposed
of and shall be prevented from being carried
off -site by either wind or water.
M. Each site shall contain measures to prevent
sediment from being tracked onto public or

A. Applicability:
All land disturbing activity not specifically exempted by
the provisions of this ordinance shall be. subject to the.
applicable standards and requirements set forth in this
ordinance.
B. Maintenance of Control Measures.
All soil erosion and sediment control measures. necessary to
meet the requirements of.this ordinance shall be maintained
periodically in accordance with acceptable schedule by the
applicant or subsequent landowner during the period of land
disturbance. and development of the site in.a satisfactory manner
to ensure adequate performance.
C. Construction Observations.
The City and/or designated project engineer shall observe
and inform the applicant of deficiencies for that portion of
work that fails to comply with the site development plan as
approved. Where it is found by observation that conditions are
not substantially as stated or shown in said plan, the City
Engineer may stop further work until a revised site development
plan conforming to the existing conditions is found to be
acceptable to the City.
Observations shall be in accordance with the following
schedule, and the permittee shall notify the City Engineer at
least two (2) working days before said observation is to be made:
136 MARCH .23, 1994 VOLUME LiX
1. Prior to -proceeding with any land disturbance and upon
completion of installation of sediment and runoff
control measures (including perimeter controls and
diversions),
2. After stripping and clearing,
3. After rough grading,
4. After final grading,
5. -After seeding and landscaping deadlines, and
6. After final stabilization and landscaping, prior to
removal of sediment controls.
If land disturbing activities are to be done in phases or
areas, the permittee shall give notice and request construction
observation at completion of each of the above work stages in
each phase or area. If an observation is not made and
notification of the results given within ten (10) working days
after notice is received by the. City from.the permittee, the
permittee may continue work at their own risk, without presuming
acceptance by the city. Notification of the results of the
inspection shall be given in writing at the site.
D. Special Precautions.
1. If at any stage of site development the City Engineer
determines by construction observation that. the nature
of the site is such that further work as authorized by
an existing permit is likely to imperil any property,
public way, watercourse, stream, lake, wetland, or
drainage structure, the City Engineer, shall advise
and may°require as a condition of allowing the work to
continue, that certain reasonable special precautions
be taken as is considered advisable -to avoid the
likelihood of such peril. "Special precautions" may
include, but shall. not be limited to, specifying a
more level exposed slope; construction of additional.
erosion control or drainage facilities, berms,
terracing, compaction, or cribbing; installation of
plant materials for erosion control; and
recommendations of a soils engineer, engineering
geologist or biologist may be made part of the
requirements for further work.
2. Where it appears that storm damage may result because
the grading on the development site is not adequate,
work may be stopped and the permi.ttee required to
install temporary structures or take such measures as
may be required to protect adjoining property or the
public safety. On large developments or where unusual
site conditions prevail, the City Engineer, may
specify the time of grading and time of completion or
VOLUME LTX MARCH 23, 1994 137
may require that the operations be conducted in
specific stages so as to insure completion of
protective measures or devices prior to the advent of
seasonal rains.
E. Retention of Plans and Permit.
