[Amended 9-2-2008 by Ord. No. 688; 10-7-2014 by Ord. No. 751; 12-7-2016 by Ord. No. 774]
The intent of this article is to reduce the amount of post-construction stormwater and associated pollutants reaching waters of the state. This article is designed to foster the consistent statewide application of post-construction performance standards for new development and redevelopment contained in Subchapters III and IV of Chapter NR 151, Wis. Adm. Code.
A. 
This article is adopted under the authority granted by § 61.354, Wis. Stats. This article supersedes all provisions of an ordinance previously enacted under § 61.35, Wis. Stats., that relate to stormwater management regulations. Except as otherwise specified in § 61.354, Wis. Stats., § 61.35, Wis. Stats., applies to this article and to any amendments to this article.
B. 
The provisions of this article are deemed not to limit any other lawful regulatory powers of the Village Board.
C. 
The Village Board hereby designates the Public Works Superintendent or his/her designee to administer and enforce the provisions of this article.
D. 
The requirements of this article do not preempt more stringent stormwater management requirements that may be imposed by any of the following:
(1) 
Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources administrative rules, permits or approvals including those authorized under §§ 281.16 and 283.33, Wis. Stats.
(2) 
Targeted nonagricultural performance standards promulgated in rules by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources under § NR 151.004, Wis. Adm. Code.
The Village Board finds that uncontrolled, post-construction runoff has a significant impact upon water resources and the health, safety and general welfare of the community and diminishes the public enjoyment and use of natural resources. Specifically, uncontrolled post-construction runoff can:
A. 
Degrade physical stream habitat by increasing stream bank erosion, increasing streambed scour, diminishing groundwater recharge, diminishing stream base flows and increasing stream temperature.
B. 
Diminish the capacity of lakes and streams to support fish, aquatic life, recreational and water supply uses by increasing pollutant loading of sediment, suspended solids, nutrients, heavy metals, bacteria, pathogens and other urban pollutants.
C. 
Alter wetland communities by changing wetland hydrology and by increasing pollutant loads.
D. 
Reduce the quality of groundwater by increasing pollutant loading.
E. 
Threaten public health, safety, property and general welfare by overtaxing storm sewers, drainageways, and other minor drainage facilities.
F. 
Threaten public health, safety, property and general welfare by increasing major flood peaks and volumes.
G. 
Undermine floodplain management efforts by increasing the incidence and levels of flooding.
A. 
Purpose. The general purpose of this article is to establish long-term, post-construction runoff management requirements that will diminish the threats to public health, safety, welfare and the aquatic environment. Specific purposes are to:
(1) 
Further the maintenance of safe and healthful conditions.
(2) 
Prevent and control the adverse effects of stormwater; prevent and control soil erosion; prevent and control water pollution; protect spawning grounds, fish and aquatic life; control building sites, placement of structures and land uses; preserve ground cover and scenic beauty; and promote sound economic growth.
(3) 
Control exceedance of the safe capacity of existing drainage facilities and receiving water bodies; prevent undue channel erosion; control increases in the scouring and transportation of particulate matter; and prevent conditions that endanger downstream property.
(4) 
Minimize the amount of pollutants discharged from the separate storm sewer to protect the waters of the state.
B. 
Intent. It is the intent of the Village Board that this article regulates post-construction stormwater discharges to waters of the state. This article may be applied on a site-by-site basis. The Village Board recognizes, however, that the preferred method of achieving the stormwater performance standards set forth in this article is through the preparation and implementation of comprehensive, systems-level stormwater management plans that cover hydrologic units, such as watersheds, on a municipal and regional scale. Such plans may prescribe regional stormwater devices, practices or systems, any of which may be designed to treat runoff from more than one site prior to discharge to waters of the state. Where such plans are in conformance with the performance standards developed under § 281.16, Wis. Stats., for regional stormwater management measures and have been approved by the Village Board, it is the intent of this article that the approved plan be used to identify post-construction management measures acceptable for the community.
A. 
Applicability.
(1) 
This article applies to a post-construction site which has one acre or more of land-disturbing construction activity, unless the site is otherwise exempt under Subsection A(2).
(2) 
A site that meets any of the criteria in this subsection is exempt from the requirements of this article.
(a) 
A post-construction site with less than 10% connected imperviousness based on complete development of the post-construction site, provided that the cumulative area of all parking lots and rooftops is less than one acre. However, the exemption of this subsection does not include exemption from the protective area standard of this article.
(b) 
Nonpoint discharges from agricultural facilities and practices.
(c) 
Nonpoint discharges from silviculture activities.
(d) 
Routine maintenance for project sites under five acres of land disturbance if performed to maintain the original line and grade, hydraulic capacity or original purpose of the facility.
(e) 
Underground utility construction such as water, sewer and fiberoptic lines. This exemption does not apply to the construction of any aboveground structures associated with utility construction.
(f) 
The requirements of this article do not preempt more stringent stormwater management requirements that may be imposed by any of the following:

Protective areas.
(a) 
"Protective area" means an area of land that commences at the top of the channel of lakes, streams and rivers, or at the delineated boundary of wetlands, and that is the greatest of the following widths, as measured horizontally from the top of the channel or delineated wetland boundary to the closest impervious surface. However, in this subsection, "protective area" does not include any area of land adjacent to any stream enclosed within a pipe or culvert, such that runoff cannot enter the enclosure at this location.
[1] 
For outstanding resource waters and exceptional resource waters, 75 feet.
[2] 
For perennial and intermittent streams identified on a United States Geological Survey 7.5-minute series topographic map, or a county soil survey map, whichever is more current, 50 feet.
[3] 
For lakes, 50 feet.
[4] 
For highly susceptible wetlands, 75 feet. Highly susceptible wetlands include the following types: calcareous fens, sedge meadows, open and coniferous bogs, low prairies, coniferous swamps, lowland hardwood swamps and, ephemeral ponds.
[5] 
For less susceptible wetlands, 10% of the average wetland width, but no less than 10 feet nor more than 30 feet. Less susceptible wetlands include degraded wetlands dominated by invasive species such as reed canary grass; cultivated hydric soils; and any gravel pits, or dredged material disposal sites that take on the attributes of a wetland.
[6] 
For wetlands not subject to Subsection D(4)(a)[4] or [5], 50 feet.
[7] 
In Subsection D(4)(a)[4] through [6], determinations of the extent of the protective area adjacent to wetlands shall be made on the basis of the sensitivity and runoff susceptibility of the wetland in accordance with the standards and criteria in § NR 103.03.
[8] 
Wetland boundary delineation shall be made in accordance with § NR 103.08(1m). This subsection does not apply to wetlands that have been completely filled in compliance with all applicable state and federal regulations. The protective area for wetlands that have been partially filled in compliance with all applicable state and federal regulations shall be measured from the wetland boundary delineation after a fill has been placed. Where there is a legally authorized wetland fill, the protective area standard need not be met in that location.
[9] 
For concentrated flow channels with drainage areas greater than 130 acres, 10 feet.
[10] 
Notwithstanding Subsection D(4)(a)[1] through [9], the greatest protective area width shall apply where rivers, streams, lakes and wetlands are contiguous.
(b) 
This subsection applies to post-construction sites located within a protective area, except those areas exempted pursuant to Subsection D(4)(d).
(c) 
The following requirements shall be met:
[1] 
Impervious surfaces shall be kept out of the protective area entirely or to the maximum extent practicable. If there is no practical alternative to locating an impervious surface in the protective area, the stormwater management plan shall contain a written site-specific explanation.
[2] 
Where land-disturbing construction activity occurs within a protective area, and where no impervious surface is present, adequate sod or self-sustaining vegetative cover of 70% or greater shall be established and maintained. The adequate sod or self-sustaining vegetative cover shall be sufficient to provide for bank stability, maintenance of fish habitat and filtering of pollutants from upslope overland flow areas under sheet flow conditions.
