(Ord. <br />505, 4-27-92) <br /> <br /> <br />1010.02: FINDINGS OF FACT; PURPOSE: <br /> <br />Subd. 1. Findings: <br /> <br /> a. The Council finds that wetlands within the City, as part of the ecosystem, are critical to the <br />present and future health, safety and general welfare of the land, animals and people within the <br />City, as well as within the Rice Creek Watershed District, that existing and potential <br />development within the City and Rice Creek Watershed possess increasing ecological and <br />economic problems and demands, having the effect of potentially despoiling, polluting, <br />accelerating the aging, eliminating or negatively and irretrievably altering both the wetlands and <br />their functions (and the processes associated therewith) which, if managed, will constitute <br />important physical, educational, ecological, aesthetic, recreational and economic assets for <br />existing and future residents of the community and the Rice Creek Watershed District. The <br />City Council has in mind its statutory obligation to comply with Chapters 104, 105 and 112 <br /> <br /> 1 See Chapter 1301 for flood plain zoning and Chapter 1302 for surface water management regulations.
