2016-17 BILL NO. 2016-17
AN ORDINANCE REPEALING SECTION 550 OF RICHFIELD CITY
CODE PERTAINING TO FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS
AND REPLACING IT WITH A NEW SECTION 550
THE CITY OF RICHFIELD DOES ORDAIN:
SECTION 1. Section 550 of the Richfield City Code is hereby deleted in its entirety and
replaced as follows:
SECTION 550 - FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS.
550.01. - Statutory Authorization and Purpose.
Subdivision 1. Statutory Authorization. The legislature of the State of Minnesota has, in
Minnesota Statutes Chapter 103F and Chapter 462, delegated the responsibility to local
government units to adopt regulations designed to minimize flood losses.
Subd. 2. Purpose.
(a) This ordinance regulates development in the flood hazard areas of Richfield.
These flood hazard areas are subject to periodic inundation, which may result in loss of
life and property, health and safety hazards, disruption of commerce and governmental
services, extraordinary public expenditures for flood protection and relief, and
impairment of the tax base. It is the purpose of this ordinance to promote the public
health, safety, and general welfare by minimizing these losses and disruptions.
(b) National Flood Insurance Program Compliance. This ordinance is adopted to
comply with the rules and regulations of the National Flood Insurance Program codified
as 44 Code of Federal Regulations Parts 59-78, as amended, so as to maintain the
community's eligibility in the National Flood Insurance Program.
(c) This ordinance is also intended to preserve the natural characteristics and
functions of watercourses and floodplains in order to moderate flood and stormwater
impacts, improve water quality, reduce soil erosion, protect aquatic and riparian habitat,
provide recreational opportunities, provide aesthetic benefits and enhance community
and economic development.
550.03. - General Provisions.
Subdivision 1. Lands to Which Ordinance Applies. This ordinance applies to all lands
within the jurisdiction of the City of Richfield shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Maps
adopted in Subsection 550.03, Subdivision 2 as being located within the boundaries of
the Floodplain District. The Floodplain District is an overlay district that is superimposed
on all existing zoning districts. The standards imposed in the overlay districts are in
addition to any other requirements in this ordinance. In case of a conflict, the more
restrictive standards will apply.
Subd. 2. Adoption of Flood Insurance Study and Maps. The following maps together
with all attached material are hereby adopted by reference and declared to be a part of
the Official Zoning Map and this ordinance. The attached material includes the Flood
Insurance Study for Hennepin County, Minnesota, and Incorporated Areas, dated
November 4, 2016 and the Flood Insurance Rate Map panels enumerated below, dated
November 4, 2016, all prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
These materials are on file in the Public Works Maintenance Facility at 1901 E 66th St,
Richfield, MN 55423.
Effective Flood Insurance Rate Map panels:
27053C0364F 27053C0369F 27053C0452F 27053C0457F
27053C0368F 27053C0388F 27053C0456F 27053C0476F
Subd. 3. Interpretation. The boundaries of the Floodplain District are determined by
scaling distances on the Flood Insurance Rate Map.
(a) Where a conflict exists between the floodplain limits illustrated on the official
zoning map and actual field conditions, the flood elevations must be the governing
factor. The Zoning Administrator must interpret the boundary location based on the
ground elevations that existed on the site on the date of the first National Flood
Insurance Program map showing the area within the regulatory floodplain, and other
available technical data.
(b) Persons contesting the location of the district boundaries will be given a
reasonable opportunity to present their case to the Planning Commission and to submit
technical evidence.
Subd. 4. Abrogation and Greater Restrictions. It is not intended by this ordinance to
repeal, abrogate, or impair any existing easements, covenants, or deed restrictions.
However, where this ordinance imposes greater restrictions, the provisions of this
ordinance prevail. All other ordinances inconsistent with this ordinance are hereby
repealed to the extent of the inconsistency only.
Subd. 5. Warning and Disclaimer of Liability. This ordinance does not imply that areas
outside the floodplain districts or land uses permitted within such districts will be free
from flooding or flood damages. This ordinance does not create liability on the part of
the City of Richfield or any officer or employee thereof for any flood damages that result
from reliance on this ordinance or any administrative decision lawfully made hereunder.
Subd. 6. Severability. If any section, clause, provision, or portion of this ordinance is
adjudged unconstitutional or invalid by a court of law, the remainder of this ordinance
shall not be affected and shall remain in full force.
Subd. 7. Definitions. Unless specifically defined below, words or phrases used in this
ordinance must be interpreted so as to give them the same meaning as they have in
common usage and so as to give this ordinance its most reasonable application.
(a) Base Flood — the flood having a one percent chance of being equaled or
exceeded in any given year.
(b) Base Flood Elevation — The elevation of the "regional flood," as defined. The
term "base flood elevation" is used in the flood insurance survey.
(c) Development — any man-made change to improved or unimproved real estate
including, but not limited to, buildings, manufactured homes, and other structures,
recreational vehicles, mining, dredging, filling, grading, paving, excavation, drilling
operations, or storage of materials or equipment.
(d) Farm Fence — A fence as defined by Minn. Statute §344.02 Subd. 1(a)-(d). An
open type fence of posts and wire is not considered to be a structure under this
ordinance. Fences that have the potential to obstruct flood flows, such as chain link
fences and rigid walls, are not permitted in the Floodplain District.
(e) Flood Fringe —the portion of the floodplain located outside of the floodway. Flood
fringe is synonymous with the term "floodway fringe" used in the Flood Insurance Study,
Hennepin County, Minnesota and Incorporated Areas.
(f) Flood Insurance Rate Map — an official map on which the Federal Insurance
Administrator has delineated both the special hazard areas and the risk premium zones
applicable to the community. A FIRM that has been made available digitally is called a
Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM).
(g) Floodplain — the areas adjoining a watercourse which have been or hereafter
may be covered by the regional flood.
(h) Floodway — the bed of a wetland or lake and the channel of a watercourse and
those portions of the adjoining floodplain which are reasonably required to carry or store
the regional flood discharge.
(i) Manufactured Home — a structure, transportable in one or more sections, which
is built on a permanent chassis and is designed for use with or without a permanent
foundation when attached to the required utilities. The term "manufactured home" does
not include the term "recreational vehicle."
(j) Obstruction — any dam, wall, wharf, embankment, levee, dike, pile, abutment,
projection, excavation, channel modification, culvert, building, wire, fence (with the
exception of farm fences), stockpile, refuse, fill, structure, or matter in, along, across, or
projecting into any channel, watercourse, or regulatory floodplain which may impede,
retard, or change the direction of the flow of water, either in itself or by catching or
collecting debris carried by such water.
(k) Recreational Vehicle — a vehicle that is built on a single chassis, is 400 square
feet or less when measured at the largest horizontal projection, is designed to be self-
propelled or permanently towable by a light duty truck, and is designed primarily not for
use as a permanent dwelling but as temporary living quarters for recreational, camping,
travel, or seasonal use. For the purposes of this ordinance, the term recreational vehicle
is synonymous with the term "travel trailer/travel vehicle."
(I) Regional Flood — a flood which is representative of large floods known to have
occurred generally in Minnesota and reasonably characteristic of what can be expected
to occur on an average frequency in the magnitude of the 1% chance / 100-year
recurrence interval. Regional flood is synonymous with the term "base flood" used in the
Flood Insurance Study.
(m) Regulatory Flood Protection Elevation — an elevation no lower than one foot
above the elevation of the regional flood plus any increases in flood elevation caused by
encroachments on the floodplain that result from designation of a floodway.
(n) Structure — anything constructed or erected on the ground or attached to the
ground, including, but not limited to, buildings, factories, sheds, detached garages,
cabins, manufactured homes, and other similar items.
(o) Substantial Damage - damage of any origin sustained by a structure where the
cost of restoring the structure to its before damaged condition would equal or exceed 50
percent of the market value of the structure before the damage occurred.
(p) Substantial Improvement - within any consecutive 365-day period, any
reconstruction, rehabilitation (including normal maintenance and repair), repair after
damage, addition, or other improvement of a structure, the cost of which equals or
exceeds 50 percent of the market value of the structure before the "start of construction"
of the improvement. This term includes structures that have incurred "substantial
damage," regardless of the actual repair work performed. The term does not, however,
include either:
(i) Any project for improvement of a structure to correct existing violations of state or
local health, sanitary, or safety code specifications which have been identified by the
local code enforcement official and which are the minimum necessary to assure safe
living conditions.
(ii) Any alteration of a "historic structure," provided that the alteration will not
preclude the structure's continued designation as a "historic structure." For the purpose
of this ordinance, "historic structure" is as defined in 44 Code of Federal Regulations,
Part 59.1.
550.05. - Establishment of Floodplain District.
Subdivision 1. Areas Included. The Floodplain District for the City of Richfield includes
those areas designated as Zone AE on the Flood Insurance Rate Maps adopted in
Subsection 550.03, Subdivision 2. The Floodplain District is an overlay district to all
existing land use districts. The requirements of this ordinance apply in addition to other
legally established regulations of the community. Where this ordinance imposes greater
restrictions, the provisions of this ordinance apply.
Subd. 2. Compliance. No new structure or land shall hereafter be used and no structure
shall be constructed, located, extended, converted, or structurally altered without full
compliance with the terms of this ordinance and other applicable regulations. Within the
Floodplain District, all uses not listed as permitted uses in Subsection 550.07 are
prohibited.
550.07. - Permitted Uses and Standards in the Floodplain District.
Subdivision 1. Permitted Uses. The following uses are permitted within the Floodplain
District without a permit provided that they are allowed in any underlying zoning district
and not prohibited by any other ordinance; and provided that they do not require
structures, fill, obstructions, excavations, drilling operations, storage of materials or
equipment or any other form of development as defined in Subsection 550.03,
Subdivision 7 of this ordinance. If the use does require fill, obstruction, excavation,
storage of materials or any other form of development as defined in Subsection 550.03,
Subdivision 7 of this ordinance, a permit and compliance with Subsection 550.07,
Subdivision 2 of this ordinance is required. The permit requirement may be waived if
there is an application for a public waters work permit from the Department of Natural
Resources.
(a) Agricultural uses such as general farming, pasture, grazing, forestry, sod
farming, and wild crop harvesting. Farm fences that do not obstruct flood flows are
permitted.
(b) Outdoor plant nurseries and horticulture.
(c) Private and public recreational uses such as golf courses, tennis courts, driving
ranges, archery ranges, picnic grounds, boat launching ramps, swimming areas, parks,
wildlife and nature preserves, game farms, shooting preserves, target ranges, hunting
and fishing areas, and single or multiple purpose recreational trails.
(d) Lawns, gardens, parking areas, and play areas.
(e) Railroads, roads, bridges, utility transmission lines, pipelines and other public
utilities, provided that the Department of Natural Resources is notified at least ten (10)
days prior to issuance of any permit.
Subd. 2. Standards for Permitted Uses.
(a) The use must have low flood damage potential.
(b) The use must not cause any increase in the stage of the 1% chance or regional
flood or cause an increase in flood damages in the reach or reaches affected. This
provision applies to structures (temporary or permanent), fill (including fill for roads and
levees), deposits, obstructions, storage of materials or equipment, and all other uses.
(c) Floodplain developments must not adversely affect the hydraulic capacity of the
channel and adjoining floodplain of any tributary watercourse or drainage system.
(d) Public utilities, roads, railroad tracks and bridges to be located within the
floodplain must be designed in accordance with Subsection 550.07, Subdivision 2,
Clauses (b) and (c) above, or must obtain a Conditional Letter of Map Revision meeting
the requirements of 44 CFR 603(d).
(i) When failure or interruption of these public facilities would result in danger to the
public health or safety or where such facilities are essential to the orderly functioning of
the area, such facilities must be elevated to the regulatory flood protection elevation.
(ii) Where failure or interruption of service would not endanger public health or
safety, minor or auxiliary roads, railroads or utilities may be constructed at a lower
elevation.
(e) New or replacement water supply systems and sanitary sewage systems must
be designed to minimize or eliminate infiltration of flood waters into the systems and
discharges from the systems into flood waters.
550.09. -Administration.
Subdivision 1. Zoning Administrator. A Zoning Administrator or other official
designated by the City Council must administer and enforce this ordinance.
Subd. 2. Development Approvals. Any construction, enlargement, alteration, repair,
improvement, moving or demolition of any building or structure must comply with the
requirements of this ordinance. No mining, dredging, filling, grading, paving, excavation,
obstruction, drilling operation or other form of development as defined in Subsection
550.03 of this ordinance are allowed, other than the uses permitted in Subsection
550.07, Subdivision 1 and the activities allowed under Subsection 550.11.
Subd. 3. Permit Required. A permit must be obtained from the Zoning Administrator
prior to conducting the following activities:
(i) Expansion, change, enlargement, or alteration of a nonconforming use as
specified in Subsection 550.11 of this ordinance. Normal maintenance and repair also
requires a permit if such work, separately or in conjunction with other planned work,
constitutes a substantial improvement as defined in Subsection 550.03, Subdivision 7 of
this ordinance.
(ii) Any use that requires fill, obstruction, excavation, storage of materials, or any
other form of development as defined in Subsection 550.03, Subdivision 7 of this
ordinance.
(a) Permit applications must be submitted to the Zoning Administrator on forms
provided for that purpose and shall include the following where applicable: plans drawn
to scale, showing the nature, location, dimensions, and elevations of the lot; existing or
proposed structures, fill, or storage of materials; and the location of the foregoing in
relation to the stream channel.
(b) Prior to granting a permit, the Zoning Administrator must verify that the applicant
has obtained all necessary state and federal permits.
Subd. 4. Variances. An application for a variance to the provisions of this ordinance will
be processed and reviewed in accordance with applicable state statutes. A variance to
the standards outlined in this Section may be requested under City zoning code Section
547.11.
(a) A variance must not allow a use that is not allowed in that district, permit a lower
degree of flood protection than the regulatory flood protection elevation for the particular
area, or permit standards lower than those required by state law.
(b) The following additional variance criteria of the Federal Emergency Management
Agency must be met:
(i) Variances must not be issued by a community within any designated regulatory
floodway if any increase in flood levels during the base flood discharge would result.
(ii) Variances may only be issued by a community upon (i) a showing of good and
sufficient cause, (ii) a determination that failure to grant the variance would result in
exceptional hardship to the applicant, and (iii) a determination that the granting of a
variance will not result in increased flood heights, additional threats to public safety,
extraordinary public expense, create nuisances, cause fraud on or victimization of the
public, or conflict with existing local laws or ordinances.
(iii) Variances may only be issued upon a determination that the variance is the
minimum necessary, considering the flood hazard, to afford relief.
(c) The City Council must submit hearing notices for proposed variances to the
Department of Natural Resources sufficiently in advance to provide at least ten days'
notice of the hearing. The notice may be sent by electronic mail or U.S. Mail to the
respective DNR area hydrologist.
(d) A copy of all decisions granting variances must be forwarded to the
Commissioner of the Department of Natural Resources within ten days of such action.
The notice may be sent by electronic mail or U.S. Mail to the respective DNR area
hydrologist.
(e) The Zoning Administrator must notify the applicant for a variance that: 1) The
issuance of a variance to construct a structure below the base flood level will result in
increased premium rates for flood insurance up to amounts as high as $25 for $100 of
insurance coverage and 2) Such construction below the base or regional flood level
increases risks to life and property.
(f) The Zoning Administrator must maintain a record of all variance actions,
including justification for their issuance, and must report such variances in an annual or
biennial report to the Administrator of the National Flood Insurance Program, when
requested by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Subd. 5. Notifications for Watercourse Alterations. Before authorizing any alteration or
relocation of a river or stream, the Zoning Administrator must notify adjacent
communities. If the applicant has applied for a permit to work in public waters pursuant
to Minnesota Statute, Chapter 103G.245, this will suffice as adequate notice. A copy of
the notification must also be submitted to the Chicago Regional Office of the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
Subd. 6. Notification to FEMA When Physical Changes Increase or Decrease Base
Flood Elevations. As soon as is practicable, but not later than six months after the date
such supporting information becomes available, the Zoning Administrator must notify
the Chicago Regional Office of FEMA of the changes by submitting a copy of the
relevant technical or scientific data.
550.11. - Nonconformities.
Subdivision 1. Continuance of Nonconformities. A use, structure, or occupancy of land
which was lawful before the passage or amendment of this ordinance but which is not in
conformity with the provisions of this ordinance may be continued subject to the
following conditions. Historic structures, as defined in Subsection 550.03, Subdivision 7,
Clause (o)(2) of this ordinance, are subject to the provisions of Subsection 550.11,
Subdivision 1, Clauses (a) - (d) of this ordinance.
(a) A nonconforming use, structure, or occupancy must not be expanded, changed,
enlarged, or altered in a way that increases its nonconformity. There shall be no
expansion to the outside dimensions of any portion of a nonconforming structure
located within the Floodplain District.
(b) The cost of all structural alterations or additions to any nonconforming structure
over the life of the structure may not exceed 50 percent of the market value of the
structure unless the conditions of this Subsection are satisfied. The cost of all structural
alterations and additions must include all costs such as construction materials and a
reasonable cost placed on all manpower or labor. If the cost of all previous and
proposed alterations and additions exceeds 50 percent of the market value of the
structure, then the structure must meet the standards of Subsection 550.11, Subdivision
2 of this ordinance.
(c) If any nonconforming use, or any use of a nonconforming structure, is
discontinued for more than one year, any future use of the premises must conform to
this ordinance. The Assessor must notify the Zoning Administrator in writing of
instances of nonconformities that have been discontinued for a period of more than one
year.
(d) If any nonconformity is substantially damaged, as defined in Subsection 550.03,
Subdivision 7 of this ordinance, it may not be reconstructed unless it is located in the
flood fringe portion of the floodplain and it is reconstructed in accordance with the
standards of Subsection 550.11, Subdivision 2 of this ordinance.
(e) Any substantial improvement, as defined in Subsection 550.03, Subdivision 7 of
this ordinance, to a nonconforming structure, then the existing nonconforming structure
must be located in the flood fringe portion of the floodplain and meet the requirements
of Subsection 550.11, Subdivision 2 of this ordinance.
Subd. 2. Standards for Reconstruction of Nonconforming Structures. The following
standards and procedures apply to nonconforming structures in the flood fringe portion
of the floodplain, as allowed under Subsection 550.11, Subdivision 1.
(a) All structures, including manufactured homes, must be elevated on fill so that the
lowest floor including basement floor is at or above the regulatory flood protection
elevation. The finished fill elevation for structures shall be no lower than one foot below
the regulatory flood protection elevation and the fill shall extend at such elevation at
least 15 feet beyond the outside limits of the structure.
(b) Fill must be properly compacted and the slopes must be properly protected by
the use of riprap, vegetative cover or other acceptable method.
(c) Floodplain developments must not adversely affect the hydraulic capacity of the
channel and adjoining floodplain of any tributary watercourse or drainage system.
(d) All manufactured homes must be securely anchored to an adequately anchored
foundation system that resists flotation, collapse and lateral movement. Methods of
anchoring may include, but are not limited to, use of over-the-top or frame ties to ground
anchors. This requirement is in addition to applicable state or local anchoring
requirements for resisting wind forces.
(e) On-site Sewage Treatment and Water Supply Systems. Where public utilities are
not provided: 1) On-site water supply systems must be designed to minimize or
eliminate infiltration of flood waters into the systems; and 2) New or replacement on-site
sewage treatment systems must be designed to minimize or eliminate infiltration of flood
waters into the systems and discharges from the systems into flood waters and they
shall not be subject to impairment or contamination during times of flooding. Any
sewage treatment system designed in accordance with the State's current statewide
standards for on-site sewage treatment systems shall be determined to be in
compliance with this Subsection.
(f) Certification. The applicant is required to submit certification by a registered
professional engineer, registered architect, or registered land surveyor that the finished
fill and building elevations were accomplished in compliance with the provisions of this
ordinance. Floodproofing measures must be certified by a registered professional
engineer or registered architect.
(g) Record of First Floor Elevation. The Zoning Administrator must maintain a record
of the elevation of the lowest floor (including basement) of all new structures and
alterations to existing structures in the floodplain. The Zoning Administrator must also
maintain a record of the elevation to which structures and alterations or additions to
structures are floodproofed.
550.13. - Penalties and Enforcement.
Subdivision 1. Violation Constitutes a Misdemeanor. Violation of the provisions of this
ordinance or failure to comply with any of its requirements (including violations of
conditions and safeguards established in connection with grants of variances)
constitutes a misdemeanor and is punishable as defined by law.
Subd. 2. Other Lawful Action. Nothing in this ordinance restricts the City of Richfield
from taking such other lawful action as is necessary to prevent or remedy any violation.
If the responsible party does not appropriately respond to the Zoning Administrator
within the specified period of time, each additional day that lapses will constitute an
additional violation of this ordinance and will be prosecuted accordingly.
Subd. 3. Enforcement. In responding to a suspected ordinance violation, the Zoning
Administrator and City Council may utilize the full array of enforcement actions available
to it including but not limited to prosecution and fines, injunctions, after-the-fact permits,
orders for corrective measures or a request to the National Flood Insurance Program for
denial of flood insurance availability to the guilty party. The City must act in good faith to
enforce these official controls and to correct ordinance violations to the extent possible
so as not to jeopardize its eligibility in the National Flood Insurance Program.
550.15. - Amendments.
Subdivision 1. Floodplain Designation — Restrictions on Removal. The floodplain
designation on the Official Zoning Map shall not be removed from floodplain areas
unless it can be shown that the designation is in error or that the area has been filled to
or above the elevation of the regulatory flood protection elevation and is contiguous to
lands outside the floodplain. Special exceptions to this rule may be permitted by the
Commissioner of the Department of Natural Resources if the Commissioner determines
that, through other measures, lands are adequately protected for the intended use.
Subd. 2. Amendments Require DNR and FEMA Approval. All amendments to this
ordinance must be submitted to and approved by the Commissioner of the Department
of Natural Resources (DNR) prior to adoption. The Commissioner of the DNR must
approve the amendment prior to community approval.
Subd. 3. Map Amendments Require Ordinance Amendments. The floodplain district
regulations must be amended to incorporate any revisions by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency to the floodplain maps adopted in Subsection 550.03, Subdivision
2 of this ordinance.
SECTION 2. This Ordinance will be effective in accordance with Section 3.09 of the
City Charter.
Passed by the City Council of the City of Richfield, Minnesota this 11th day of October,
2016.
