This chapter is adopted pursuant to authority conferred by § 60.22
and 86.07, Wisconsin Statutes.
The purpose of this chapter is to promote the public health,
safety, and general welfare of the Town of Wescott by ensuring safe
access and adequate means to convey surface water runoff within public
rights-of-way in the Town of Wescott.
This chapter applies to all driveway access and culverts located
within public rights-of-way in the Town. No driveway access and/or
culvert in a public right-of-way may hereinafter be installed, relocated
or replaced without a driveway access/culvert permit as provided herein.
The standards, procedures and approvals required by this chapter
are minimum standards of the Town of Wescott. Any driveway access
or culvert on a county, state or federal highway may be subject to
additional standards, procedures and approvals of other governmental
units. Where more than one governmental unit has authority to approve,
a driveway access and culvert shall comply with the most restrictive
requirements. A permit under this chapter only constitutes approval
under this chapter. The applicant is solely responsible for obtaining
any other required approvals.
