. . . Section 6. Section 1301.10 Subd. 2.c.(1), (2) and (3) are hereby amended to read as follows: (1) All Uses: No structure (temporary or permanent), fill (including fill far for roads and levees), deposit, obstruction, storage of materials or equipment or other uses may be allowed as a conditional use which, acting alone or in combination with existing or reasonably anticipated future uses, increases flood heights. In addition, all F.Z.D. conditional uses shall be subject to the standards contained in subdivision Section 1301.12 Subd. 5 t51 of this Chapter and the following standards of this Subdivision J Section 1301.10 Subd. 2.c. (2) Fill: (a) Any fill deposited in the F.Z.D. shall be no more than the minimum amount necessary to conduct a conditional use listed in subdi v iS10n 2b Section 1301.10 Subd. 2.c.(2)(b) hereof. Generally, fill shall be limited to that needed to grade or landscape for that use and shall not, in any way, obstruct the flow of flood waters. Fill shall be properly compacted and the slopes shall be properly protected by the use of riprap, vegetative cover or other acceptable method. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has established criteria for removing the special flood hazard area designation for certain structures properly elevated on fill above the 100- year flood elevation - FEMA's requirements incorporate specific fill compaction and side slope protection standards for multi-structure or multi-lot development. These standards should be investigated prior to the iniation of site preparation is a change of special flood hazard area designation will be requested. (b) Spoil from dredging or sand and gravel operations shall not be deposited in the F.Z.D. unless it can be done in accordance with subdivision C2a Section 1301.10 Subd. 2.c.(2)(a) above. (3) Accessory Structures: Temporary or permanent accessory structures permitted as conditional uses by subdivision 2b1 Section 1301.10 Subd. 2.b. hereof. . (a) All structures, including accessory structures, additions to existing structures and manufactured homes, shall be constructed on fill so that the basement floor, or first floor if there is no basement, is at or above the regulatory flood protection elevation. The finished fill elevation must be no lower than one foot (1 ') below the regulatory flood protection elevation and shall extend at such elevation at least fifteen (15') beyond the limits of the structure constructed thereon. .
