A. 
It shall be unlawful for any person to stop, fill, dam, confine, pave, alter the course of, or otherwise interfere with any natural or constructed drain or drainageway without first submitting a drainage plan to the Village and receiving approval of that plan. Any deviation from the approved plan is a violation of this chapter. This section shall not prohibit, however, necessary emergency action so as to prevent or mitigate drainage that would be injurious to the environment or the public health, safety, or welfare. When any of the above activity involves an established county drain, a drain use permit is required from the County Drain Commissioner.

Chain-link fences shall be permitted if the Village determines that the fence will not obstruct or divert the flow of water;
(3) 
If a fence is removed by the Village for drain access or drain maintenance, the fence shall be replaced by the owner of the fence at the owner's expense, as long as the owner complied with Subsection C(2) above;

No shrubs or trees shall be planted below the top of the bank of a water body.
