AGENDA ITEM 3 B <br />STAFF ORIGINATOR Mary Kay Wyland <br />DATE July 6, 1995 <br />TOPIC Ordinance No. 12-95 Flood Plain Ordinance <br />SECOND READING <br />ACK <br />The Minnesota State Legislature has mandated that local government <br />units adopt regulations to minimize flood loses by updating or <br />adopting floodplain regulations. The Minnesota Department of <br />Natural Resources has provided a model ordinance for communities to <br />use as a guide in this process. <br />The City's existing Floodplain Management Ordinance was adopted in <br />1988. The ordinance enclosed with this packet reflects recommended <br />language contained in the DNR model ordinance and has been reviewed <br />by Tom Hovey, DNR Area Hydrologist. Some minor differencesbetween <br />the City's draft ordinance and the DNR Model concern language <br />consistency with our Zoning Ordinance. <br />The Council approved the First Reading of Ordinance 12-95 at their <br />June 26, 1995 meeting. Staff would recommend approval of the <br />Second Reading and additionally recommend that a Summary of the <br />Ordinance be published to meet the publication requirements. <br />OPTIONS <br />1. Approve Second Reading of Ordinance 12-95 and publication of an <br />Ordinance Summary to meet publication requirements. <br />2. Delay action on Second Reading. <br />Option 1 <br />
