AN ORDINANCE REPLACING CHAPTER 90, ARTICLE VII, LAND DIVISION AND
PLATTING, SECTION 90-329 ADEQUATE PUBLIC FACILITIES
THE CITY OF HUGO ORDAINS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Hugo does hereby replace Chapter 90, Article VII
Land Division and Platting, to replace Section 90-329 Adequate Public Facilities to state the
following:
Sec. 90-329. Adequate public facilities.
Any subdivision or property line adjustment deemed to lack adequate public facilities
pursuant to criteria, which include those listed in this section, may be denied by the city council
together with all related permits and approvals.
(1) Conditions establishing premature subdivisions and property line adjustments. A
subdivision or property line adjustment may be deemed premature if it lacks adequate
public facilities as defined below. The following conditions shall not be an exclusive
list of conditions:
a. Lack of adequate drainage. A condition of inadequate drainage shall be deemed
to exist if:
1. Surface or subsurface water retention and runoff are such that it constitutes a
danger to the structural security or risk of flooding of the proposed
structures.
2. The proposed site grading and development may cause harmful and
irreparable damage from erosion and siltation on downhill or downstream
land.
Factors to be considered in making these determinations may include:
average rainfall for the area; the relation of the land to floodplains; the nature
of soils and subsoils and their ability to adequately support surface water
runoff and waste disposal systems; the slope of the land and its effect on
effluents; and the presence of streams as related to effluent disposal.
b. Lack of adequate water supply. A proposed subdivision or property line
adjustment shall be deemed to lack an adequate water supply if the proposed
subdivision does not have adequate sources of water to serve the proposed
subdivision if developed to its maximum permissible density without causing an
unreasonable depreciation of existing water supplies for surrounding areas or does
not offer acceptable integration of existing public water facilities.
c. Lack of adequate roads or highways to serve the subdivision or property line
adjustment. A proposed subdivision shall be deemed to lack adequate roads or
highways to serve the subdivision when:
1. Roads which are needed to serve the proposed subdivision or property line
adjustments are of such a width, grade, stability, vertical and horizontal

alignment, configuration, site distance and surface condition that an increase
in traffic volume generated by the proposed subdivision would create a
hazard to public safety and general welfare, or seriously aggravate an already
hazardous condition, or when said roads are inadequate for the intended use
and the proposal does not include developer -supplied improvements
adequate to defray the costs of upgrading those roads.
2. The traffic volume generated by the proposed subdivision or property line
adjustments would create unreasonable road or highway congestion or unsafe
conditions on roads or highways existing at the time of the application or
proposed for completion within the next two years.
d. Lack of adequate waste disposal systems. A proposed subdivision or property
line adjustment shall be deemed to lack adequate waste disposal systems if in
subdivisions for which sewer lines are proposed, there is inadequate sewer
capacity in the present system to support the subdivision if developed to its
maximum permissible density after reasonable sewer capacity is reserved for
schools, planned public facilities, and commercial and industrial development
projected for the next five years; or if in subdivisions where sewer lines are
neither available nor proposed, there is inadequate on -site sewer capacity potential
to support the subdivision if developed to the maximum permissible density
indicated in any governing planning document or ordinance or amendments
thereto.
e. Inconsistency with comprehensive plan. Subdivisions and property line
adjustments that do not follow planned public improvement corridors or that do
not constitute an infilling of development shall be deemed inconsistent with the
city's growth strategies as outlined in the comprehensive plan.
f. City service capacity. A proposed subdivision or property line adjustment shall
be determined to lack necessary city service capacity when services such as
recreational facilities, police and fire protection, and other city services, which
must be provided at public expense, cannot reasonably be provided for within the
next two years.
g. Inconsistency with capital improvement plans. A proposed subdivision or
property line adjustment shall be deemed inconsistent with capital improvement
plans when improvements and/or services necessary to accommodate the
proposed subdivision have not been programmed in applicable capital
improvement plans. The city council may -waive this criterion when it can be
demonstrated that a revision to capital improvement programs can be
accommodated.
(2) Burden of establishing adequacy. The burden shall be upon the applicant to show
that the proposed subdivision, development, or and property line adjustment has
adequate public facilities and is not premature.
