Wetland Zoning District Report <br />February 2, 2004 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />City Code: <br /> <br />The City Code in Section 1010.06 identifies the process by which a Wetland Zoning <br />District can be amended <br /> <br />Subd. 2. Modification of District: A wetland zoning district may be modified or eliminated by <br />four-fifths (4/5) affirmative vote of the Council after public hearing and notice as set <br />forth in Title 1100 of this Code. Wetland zoning districts may not be eliminated unless <br />it can be shown that the original designation is in error or that conditions have <br />changed. When modifying or removing a wetland zoning district, the Council shall use <br />the criteria and methods established in the Federal Manual for Identifying and <br />Delineating Jurisdictional Wetlands dated January, 1989, as amended from time to <br />time. <br /> <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Staff would like the Council’s permission to seek proposals from qualified consultants to <br />reassess the validity of the Spring Creek basin wetland zoning designation and associated <br />buffer. All proposals would be brought to the Council for review and final consideration <br />regarding this issue. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />_____________________________________ <br />James Ericson <br />Community Development Director <br /> <br />Attachments: <br />1.
