The Village Board has reviewed development activity
such as grading, tree and rock removal and fill which has the potential
to damage properties that are adjacent to such activity. Fill can
contain environmentally dangerous materials that could harm the residents
of the Village and the aquifer used by others outside of the Village.
Improper grading can cause damage to adjacent property and change
stormwater patterns that affect the Town-wide drainage plan. Clear-cutting
of trees can cause erosion and subsequent clogging of the Town-wide
drainage system.
