1010.02 1010.02 <br /> <br /> of Minnesota State Law, the regulations of Rice Creek Watershed District, Regulations of the <br />Department of Natural Resources, including provisions for protected waters, Public Law <br />92.500 (Federal Water Pollution Control Act), open space policies of the Metropolitan Council <br />and its guidelines encouraging protection and enhancement of marshes, wetlands in the flood <br />plain area and the public interest in preventing irreparable destruction or deterioration of <br />valuable natural resources. <br /> <br /> b. The public interest necessitates sound land use development, as land is a limited and <br />irreplaceable resource, and the land within the Municipality is a resource to be developed in a <br />manner which will result in minimum damage to the quality of life, property, threat to health <br />and reduction of private/public economic loss caused by drainage problems. <br /> <br />Subd. 2. Purposes: Therefore, recognizing the obligation to protect these assets and natural resource <br />gifts from destruction or deterioration and pollution of all kinds, the purposes of this Chapter <br />are: <br /> <br /> a. To preserve wetlands in as natural a state as possible; <br /> <br /> b. To serve as natural retention and detention areas for surface waters; <br /> <br /> c. To regulate the use of areas adjacent to the wetlands in order to protect and enhance the <br />natural function of the wetlands; <br /> <br /> d. To provide for the protection, preservation, proper maintenance, use and enhancement of <br />wetland zoning districts; <br /> <br /> e. To minimize the disturbance to them and to prevent or minimize damage from excessive <br />sedimentation, eutrophication or pollution; <br /> <br /> f. To prevent loss of aquatic organisms, wildlife and vegetation or the habitats of the same; <br /> <br /> g. To provide for the protection of surface and ground water supplies from the danger of <br />drought, overdraft, pollution or mismanagement; <br /> <br /> h. To secure safety from floods; <br /> <br /> i. To reduce the financial burdens imposed upon the community through rescue and relief <br />efforts occasioned by the occupancy or use of areas subject to periodic flooding; <br /> <br /> j. To prevent loss of life, property damage and the losses and risks associated with flood <br />conditions; <br /> <br /> k. To reduce erosion problems; <br /> <br /> l. To enhance and preserve quality; and <br /> <br /> m. To enhance and preserve the natural drainageways. (Ord. 505, 4-27-92) <br /> <br />
