A. 
Purpose.
(1) 
The developer shall construct stormwater drainage facilities, adequate to serve the subdivision which may include curbs and gutters, catch basins and inlets, storm sewers, road ditches, open channels, water retention structures and settling basins. All such facilities shall be of adequate size and grade to hydraulically accommodate the maximum potential volumes of flow and shall be so designed as to prevent and control soil erosion and sedimentation and to present no hazards to life or property.
(2) 
Shoreland drainage facilities shall, if required, include water retention structures and settling basins so as to prevent erosion and sedimentation where such facilities discharge into streams or lakes. The design criteria, the size, type, grades and installation of all stormwater drains and sewers and other cross-section, invert and erosion control paving check dams, flumes or other energy dissipating structures and seeding and/or sodding of open channels and unpaved road ditches proposed to be constructed shall be in accordance with the plans and standard specifications approved by the Village Engineer.
(3) 
The developer shall assume the cost of installing all storm sewers within the proposed subdivision, except for the added cost of installing storm sewers greater than those which are necessary to serve tributary drainage areas lying outside of the proposed subdivision. In addition, the developer shall pay to the Village, a storm sewer trunk line connection fee based on the added cost of installing larger sewers in the total tributary drainage area which shall be prorated in proportion to the ratio which the total area of the proposed plat is to the total drainage area to be served by such larger sewers.
(4) 
The following provisions in this section are established to preserve and provide properly located public sites and facilities for drainage and stormwater management as the community develops, and to ensure that the costs of providing and developing such public sites are equitably apportioned on the basis of serving the need for the management of increased stormwater quantities resulting from land development.
B. 
Drainage system required.
(1) 
As required by § 565-29, Stormwater drainage facilities, a drainage system shall be designed and constructed by the developer to provide for the proper drainage of the surface water of the land division and the drainage area of which it is a part. Post-development peak runoff rates shall be limited to pre-development levels, up to and including one-hundred-year return period storms. A final plat shall not be approved until the developer shall submit plans, profiles and specifications as specified in this section, which have been prepared by a registered professional engineer and approved or modified by the Village Board, upon the recommendations of the Plan Commission and Village Engineer.
[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General Provisions, Art. II)]
(2) 
Lots shall be laid out so as to provide positive drainage away from all buildings, and individual lot drainage shall be coordinated with the general storm drainage pattern for the area. Drainage shall be designed so as to avoid concentration of storm drainage water from each lot to adjacent lots.
(3) 
The Plan Commission shall not recommend for approval any subdivision plat which does not provide adequate means for stormwater or floodwater runoff. Any stormwater drainage system will be separate and independent of any sanitary sewer system. Storm sewers, where necessary, shall be designed in accordance with all governmental regulations, and a copy of design computations for engineering capacities shall accompany plans submitted by the planning engineer for the final plat. When calculations indicate that curb capacities are exceeded at a point, no further allowance shall be made for flow beyond that point, and basins shall be used to intercept flow at that point.
C. 
Drainage system plans.
(1) 
The developer shall submit to the Village at the time of filing a final plat a drainage plan or engineering report on the ability of existing watercourse channels, storm sewers, culverts and other improvements pertaining to drainage or flood control within the subdivision to handle the additional runoff which would be generated by the development of the land within the subdivision. Additional information shall be submitted to adequately indicate that provision has been made for disposal of surface water without any damage to the developed or undeveloped land downstream or below the proposed subdivision. The report shall also include:
(a) 
Estimates of the quantity of stormwater entering the subdivision naturally from areas outside the subdivision.
(b) 
Quantities of flow at each inlet or culvert.
(c) 
Location, sizes and grades of required culverts, storm drainage sewers and other required appurtenances.
(2) 
A grading plan for the streets, blocks and lots shall be submitted by the developer for the area within the subdivision.
(3) 
The design criteria for storm drainage systems shall be based upon information provided by the Village Engineer.
(4) 
Material and construction specifications for all drainage projects (i.e., pipe, culverts, seed, sod, etc.) shall be in compliance with specifications provided by the Village Engineer.
D. 
Drainage system requirements. The developer shall install all the storm drainage facilities indicated on the plans required in Subsection A of this section necessary to serve, and resulting from, the phase of the land division under development:
(1) 
Street drainage. All streets shall be provided with an adequate storm drainage system. The street storm system shall serve as the minor drainage system and shall be designed to carry street, adjacent land and building stormwater drainage. Stormwater shall not be permitted to be run into the sanitary sewer system within the proposed subdivision.
(2) 
Off-street drainage. The design of the off-street major drainage system shall include the entire watershed affecting the land division and shall be extended to a watercourse or ditch adequate to receive the storm drainage. When the drainage system is outside of the street right-of-way, the developer shall make provisions for dedicating an easement pursuant to Subsection F of the Village to provide for the future maintenance of said system.
E. 
Protection of drainage systems. The developer shall adequately protect all ditches to the satisfaction of the Village Engineer. Ditches and open channels shall be seeded, sodded or paved depending upon grades and soil types. (Generally ditches or channels with grades up to 1% shall be seeded; those with grades up to 4% shall be sodded and those with grades over 4% shall be paved.)
F. 
Drainage easements. Where a land division is traversed by a watercourse, drainageway, channel or stream:
(1) 
There shall be provided a stormwater easement or drainage right-of-way conforming substantially to the lines of such watercourse and such further width or construction, or both, as will be adequate for the purpose and as may be necessary to comply with this section; or the watercourse, drainageway, channel or stream may be relocated in such a manner that the maintenance of adequate drainage will be assured and the same provided with a stormwater easement or drainage right-of-way conforming to the lines of the relocated watercourse, and such further width or construction, or both, as will be adequate for the purpose and may be necessary to comply with this section; or
(2) 
Wherever possible, drainage shall be maintained in an easement by an open channel with landscaped banks and adequate width for maximum potential volume flow. In all cases, such easements shall be of a minimum width established at the high-water mark or, in the absence of such specification, not less than 30 feet.
G. 
Dedication of drainageways. Whenever a parcel is to be subdivided or consolidated and embraces any part of a drainageway identified on a Village Comprehensive Stormwater Management Plan, master plan and/or Official Map or any portion thereof, such part of said existing or proposed public drainageway shall be platted and dedicated by the developer as an easement or right-of-way in the location and at the size indicated along with all other streets and public ways in the land division. Whenever any parcel is to be subdivided or consolidated and is part of a drainage district established under the authority of Chapter 88, Wis. Stats., the developer shall petition the Circuit Court to transfer the jurisdiction of that portion of the drainage district being subdivided or consolidated to the Village in accordance with § 88.83, Wis. Stats.
H. 
Dedication/preservation of stormwater management facilities. The developer shall dedicate sufficient land area for the storage of stormwater to meet the needs to be created by the proposed land development and in accordance with the standards for on-site detention and as determined by the Village Engineer. Whenever a proposed stormwater management facility (e.g., detention or retention basin) shown on the Comprehensive Stormwater Management Plan, Comprehensive Plan and/or Official Map is located, in whole or in part, within the proposed land division, ground areas for providing the required storage capacity in such proposed public facility shall be dedicated to the public to the requirements of the master plan and/or Official Map. Storage areas necessary to serve areas outside the land division shall be held in reserve for a period of five years from the date of final plat approval for future dedication to the Village or other appropriate agency.
I. 
Storm drainage facilities.
(1) 
The developer, at his/her cost, shall install all drainage facilities identified in the Erosion Control Plan or determined by the Village Engineer as being necessary for the management of all lands and roadways within the development. In addition, drainage capacity through the development from other areas shall be provided in accordance with a Comprehensive Surface Water Management Study, if applicable. All required storm drainage facilities shall be constructed and operational prior to acceptance of any dedications and/or public improvements served by the storm drainage facilities.
(2) 
The developer shall submit to the Village Engineer for his/her review and approval a report on the ability of existing watercourse channels, storm sewers, culverts and other improvements pertaining to drainage or flood control within the land division to handle the additional runoff which would be generated by the development of the land within the land division. Additional information shall be submitted to adequately indicate that provision has been made for disposal of surface water without any damage to the developed or undeveloped land downstream or below the proposed land division. The report shall also include:
(a) 
Estimates of the quantity of stormwater entering the land division naturally from areas outside the land division.
(b) 
Quantities of flow at each inlet or culvert.
(c) 
Location, sizes and grades of required culverts, storm drainage sewers and other required appurtenances.

Material and construction specifications for all drainage projects (i.e., pipe, culverts, seed, code, etc.) shall be in compliance with standards and specifications provided by Village ordinance and/or the Village Engineer.
J. 
Minor drainage system. The developer shall install all minor drainage system components necessary to reduce inconvenience and damages from frequent storms. Minor drainage components shall include all inlets, piping, gutters, channels, ditching, pumping and other facilities designed to accommodate the post-development runoff resulting from a ten-year frequency rainfall event as determined using the Rational Method. Temporary accumulations of storm runoff from ponding or flowing water, in or near minor system components, shall be permitted providing such accumulations do not allow the water to flow across the crown of the street from one side to the other. For arterial streets and streets located in commercial districts, ponding within normal traffic lanes (10 feet on each side of the center line of the street) is prohibited. In drainageways and drainageway easements, accumulations of water shall not inundate beyond the limits of the drainageway or drainageway easement. Cross-street drainage channels (valley gutters) shall not be permitted except on cul-de-sac or permanent dead-end streets serving fewer than 10 dwelling units and where the minimum grade in the valley gutter and street gutter between the valley gutter and the next downstream drainage inlet is not less than 1.00%.
K. 
Major drainage system. The developer shall install all major drainage system components necessary to reduce inconvenience and damages from infrequent storms. Major system components shall include large channels and drainageways, streets, easements and other paths and shall be capable of accommodating post-development runoff in excess of that accommodated by minor system components resulting from twenty-four-hour rainfall events for storms with return frequencies greater than two years up to and including the one-hundred-year, twenty-four-hour event as identified in the most current edition of Soils Conservation Service Technical Release 55 (TR 55) or Technical Release 20 (TR 20). Runoff resulting from a one-hundred-year, twenty-four-hour rainfall event shall be contained within the street right-of-way or designated storm drainage easement or detention facility.
L. 
Drainage piping systems.
(1) 
Unless otherwise approved by the Village Engineer, all drainage piping of 12 inches diameter and greater in street rights-of-way shall be constructed of Class Three reinforced concrete pipe. Piping materials outside of rights-of-way shall be subject to approval of the Village Engineer. All storm sewer outlets shall be equipped with steel bar or iron pipe debris gates.
(2) 
Agricultural drain tiles which are disturbed during construction shall be restored, reconnected or connected to public storm drainage facilities.
M. 
Open channel systems.
(1) 
Unpaved road ditches and street gutters shall be permitted only within the Village's extraterritorial plat approved jurisdictional area and shall be shaped and seeded and/or sodded as grassed waterways. Where the velocity of flow is in excess of four feet per second on soils having a severe or very severe erosion hazard and in excess of six feet per second on soils having moderate, slight, or very slight erosion hazard, the developer shall install a paved invert or check dams, flumes, or other energy dissipating devices.
(2) 
Where open channels are utilized in either the minor or major drainage system, they shall be designed so as to minimize maintenance requirements and maximize safety. Drainage easements (in lieu of dedications) shall be utilized to accommodate open channels provided adequate access by the Village for maintenance of drainage capacity. Side slopes shall not exceed a four-horizontal-to-one vertical (4:1) slope. Drainageways where subject to high groundwater, continuous flows, or other conditions as determined by the Village Engineer that would hamper maintenance operations due to consistently wet conditions, shall have a paved concrete invert of not less than eight feet wide and side slopes to a point one foot above the channel invert.
(3) 
In areas where invert paving is not required, the drainageway bottom shall be grass. If the drainageway has a bare soil bottom or the natural grasses in the drainageway are disturbed due to development operations, the drainageway bottom shall be sodded and securely staked to one foot above the elevation of inundation resulting from a pre-development five-year, twenty-four-hour storm event. Other disturbed areas shall be seeded and prepared in accordance with the Village's erosion control requirements. Velocities for grass-lined channels shall not exceed those presented in the Village's Surface Water Management Study, if one is adopted.
N. 
Standards for on-site detention storage. When the developer employs on-site detention to control erosion and sedimentation, reduce the post-development peak runoff rate or temporarily store stormwater runoff due to inadequate downstream drainage facilities. The detention (storage) facilities shall be subject to regulation in accordance with the following standards:
(1) 
Where on-site detention is temporarily employed for erosion and sedimentation control, the detention facilities shall safety contain the pre-development runoff from a five-year storm event of twenty-four-hour duration.
(2) 
Where on-site detention is permanently employed to reduce the post-development peak runoff, the detention facility shall safety contain the post-development runoff from a twenty-five-year storm event of twenty-four-hour duration within the limits of the facility.
(3) 
Post-development peak runoff rates shall be limited to pre-development levels up to and including one-hundred-year return period storms.
(4) 
All detention facilities shall safety contain or pass the runoff from any storm of any duration which exceeds the maximum storm required to be contained up to the one-hundred-year storm event of twenty-four-hour duration.
(5) 
All permanent detention facilities shall safely contain the runoff from the one-hundred-year storm event of twenty-four hour duration on both public and, if necessary, private properties without inundating any building at the ground elevation, the travel lanes of any arterial street, the center 10 feet of any collector street or the top of the curb on any local street.
(6) 
Determination of on-site detention volumes shall be computed by procedures established by the United States Soil Conservation Service in the most current edition of its technical publication entitled "Urban Hydrology for Small Watersheds, TR-55 or TR-20," and as accepted and approved by the Village Engineer.
(7) 
The storage of stormwater runoff shall not encroach on any public park (except parks designed with detention facilities) or any private lands outside the land division unless an easement providing for such storage has been approved and recorded for said lands.
(8) 
All detention facilities shall be designed with the safety of the general public and any considerations for ease of maintenance as top proprieties.
(9) 
Any wet detention facilities shall include riprap to not less than two feet above the normal pool elevation for protection from wave action, or other slope stabilization methods approved by the Village Engineer, for protection from wave action.
(10) 
The sides of all detention facilities shall have a maximum slope ratio of four-to-one (4:1) (horizontal to vertical), with flatter slopes being required where determined practical by the Village Engineer.
(11) 
The Village Board, upon recommendation by the Village Engineer, may require the installation of fencing or other such security measures in detention facilities with excessively long down times or permanent water features, or other features requiring additional security for safety reasons.
A. 
General.
(1) 
If a proposed subdivision includes land that is zoned for commercial or industrial purposes, the layout of the subdivision with respect to such land shall make such provisions as the Village may require.
(2) 
A nonresidential subdivision shall also be subject to all the requirements of site plan approval set forth in the Village Building Code. A nonresidential subdivision shall be subject to all the requirements of this chapter, as well as such additional standards required by the Village and shall conform to the proposed land use standards established by any Village Comprehensive Plan or Official Map and the Village Zoning Code.
B. 
Standards. In addition to the principles and standards in this chapter, which are appropriate to the planning of all subdivisions, the applicant shall demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Village Board that the street, parcel and block pattern proposed is specifically adapted to the uses anticipated and takes into account other uses in the vicinity. The following principles and standards shall be observed:
(1) 
Proposed industrial parcels shall be suitable in area and dimensions to the types of industrial development anticipated.
(2) 
Street rights-of-way and pavement shall be adequate to accommodate the type and volume of traffic anticipated to be generated thereupon.
(3) 
Special requirements may be imposed by the Village Board, upon the recommendation of the Village Engineer, with respect to street, curb, gutter and sidewalk design and construction.
(4) 
Special requirements may be imposed by the Village Board, upon the recommendation of the Village Engineer, with respect to the installation of public utilities, including water, sewer and stormwater drainage.
(5) 
Every effort shall be made to protect adjacent residential areas from potential nuisance from a proposed commercial or industrial subdivision, including the provision of extra depth in parcels backing up on existing or potential residential development and provisions for permanently landscaped buffer strips when necessary.
(6) 
Streets carrying nonresidential traffic, especially truck traffic, shall not normally be extended to the boundaries of adjacent existing or potential residential areas.
The developer shall grade each land division in order to establish street, block and lot grades in proper relation to each other and to topography as follows:
A. 
Master site-grading plan.
(1) 
A master site-grading plan shall be prepared by the developer for all new subdivisions. This plan shall be prepared in accordance with the requirements and standards of the Village.
(2) 
The master site-grading plan shall show existing and proposed elevations of all lot corners, control points and building locations. The plan shall also indicate all overland storm drainage in and adjacent to the subdivision. The cost of the preparation of such a plan shall be paid for by the developer.
(3) 
After approval or modification of these plans by the Village Engineer, the full width of the right-of-way of the proposed streets within the subdivision and the entire subdivision lot area shall be graded in accordance with the master site-grade plan. The owners of the subdivision lots shall adhere to those plans through deed restrictions.
(4) 
Upon completion of all street and subdivision grading, the grades shall be checked and certified by the Village Engineer to determine that the completed grading work is in accordance with the master site-grading plan.
(5) 
The cost of all required grading work, supervision, certification, inspection and engineering fees shall be paid for by the developer.
B. 
Right-of-way grading. The developer shall grade the full width of the right-of-way of all proposed streets in accordance with the approved plans, including the grading of site triangles at each intersection.
C. 
Block grading. Block grading shall be completed by one or more of the following methods:
(1) 
Regrading along the side or rear lot lines which provides for drainage to the public drainage facilities, provided any ditches or swales are in public drainage easements, provided that a deed restriction is adopted which prohibits alteration of the grades within five feet of any property line from the grades shown on the master site grading plan.
(2) 
Parts of all lots may be graded to provide for drainage to a ditch or to a swale.
D. 
Miscellaneous grading requirements.
(1) 
Lot grading shall be completed so that water drains away from each building site toward public drainage facilities at a grade approved by the Village Engineer and provisions shall be made to prevent drainage onto properties adjacent to the land division unless to a public drainage facility.
(2) 
Grading activities shall not result in slopes greater than 3:1 on public lands or lands subject to public access.
(3) 
The topsoil stripped for grading shall not be removed from the site unless identified in the erosion control plan approved by the Village Engineer as not being necessary for erosion control or site landscaping purposes. Topsoil shall be uniformly returned to the lots when rough grading is finished. Topsoil piles shall be leveled and seeded for erosion control prior to the Village releasing the one-year guarantee provision on public improvements in the streets adjacent to the lots on which the topsoil is stockpiled.
(4) 
Such grading shall not result in detriment to any existing developed lands, either within or outside of the corporate limits.
(5) 
The Village Board shall require the developer to provide or install certain protection and rehabilitation measures, such as fencing, sloping, seeding, riprap, revetments, jetties, clearing, dredging, snagging, drop structures, brush mats, willow poles and grade stabilization structures. Seeding of the site shall occur within 30 days of rough grading.
(6) 
Tree cutting and shrubbery clearing shall not exceed 50% of the lot or tract and shall be so conducted as to prevent erosion and sedimentation; preserve and improve scenic qualities; and, during foliation, substantially screen any development from stream or lake users.
(7) 
Paths and trails in wooded and wetland areas shall not exceed 10 feet in width unless otherwise approved by the Village Board, and shall be so designed and constructed as to result in the least removal and disruption of trees and shrubs, and the minimum impairment of natural beauty.
(8) 
Earth moving, such as grading, topsoil removal, mineral extraction, stream course changing, road cutting, waterway construction or enlargement, removal of stream or lake bed materials, excavation, channel, clearing, ditching, drain tile laying, dredging, and lagooning, shall be so conducted as to prevent erosion and sedimentation and to least disturb the natural fauna, flora, watercourse, water regimen, and topography.
(9) 
Review of the conduct of such cutting, clearing, and moving may be requested of the Village Forester.
E. 
Drainage flows. The developer shall cause to be set upon the master grading plan arrows indicating the directions of drainage flows for each property line not fronting on a street on all parcels and along each street as will result from the grading of the site, the construction of the required public improvements, or which are existing drainage flows and will remain. The arrows indicating the directions of flows shall be appropriately weighted so as to differentiate between the minor and major (one-hundred-year event) drainage components. The arrows shall be accompanied on the master grading plan with the following note:
