SUMMARY PUBLICATION
BILL NO. 2008-4
AN ORDINANCE AMENDMENT ADOPTING NEW SECTION 550 OF THE RICHFIELD
CITY CODE WHICH PERTAINS TO FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS IN
THE CITY OF RICHFIELD
This summary of the ordinance is published pursuant to Section 3.12 of the
Richfield City Charter.
The City Council adopted new ordinances related to zoning on November 13, 2007.
Floodplain management regulations were intended to be adopted as part of this approval.
These regulations were inadvertently left out. There are no substantive changes to the
floodplain regulations; only organizational changes have been made. Floodplain
management guidelines regulate the development of land within the floodplain.
Regulations are necessary to ensure Richfield's eligibility in the National Flood Insurance
Program. The regulations apply to areas designated as being within the 1 DO-year
floodplain. Currently there are no areas within Richfield that fall within the 1 DO-year
floodplain.
Copies of the ordinance are available for public inspection in the City Clerk's office
during normal business hours or upon request by calling the Department of Community
Development at (612) 861-9760.
Adopted by the City Council of the City of Richfield, Minnesota this 11th day of
March, 2008. ~ ~
