Manufacturing and Industrial Uses - measures shall be taken to minimize interference with normal plant operations especially along streams having protracted flood durations. Certain accessory land uses such as yards and parking lots may be at lower elevations subject to requirements set out in {}9.22.05 Subd. 5b. In considering permit applications, due consideration shall be given to needs of an industry whose business requires that it be located in flood plain areas. Fill shall be properly compacted and the slopes shall be properly protected by the use of rip-rap, vegetative cover or other acceptable method. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has established criteria for removing the special flood hazard area designation for certain structures properly elevated on fill above the 100-year flood elevation - F£MA's requirements incorporate specific fill compaction and side slope protection standards for multi-structure or multi-lot developments. These standards should be investigated prior to the initiation of site preparation if a change of special flood hazard area designation will be requested. Flood plain developments shall not adversely affect the hydraulic capacity of the channel and adjoining flood plain of any tributary watercourse or drainage system where a floodway or other encroachment limit has not been specified on the Official Zoning Map. Standards for travel trailers and travel vehicles are contained in §9.22.09 Subd. 3. 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 to be 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. 9.22.06 General Flood Plain District. Subd. 1 Permissible Uses: a. The uses listed in §9.22.04 Subd. 1 of this ordinance shall be permitted uses. b. All other uses shall be subject to the floodway/flood fringe evaluation criteria pursuant to §9.22.06 Subd. 2. §9.33.04 shall apply if the proposed use is in the Floodway District and §9.22.05 shall apply if the proposed use is in the Flood Fringe District. Subd. 2 Procedures for Floodway and Flood Fringe Determinations Within the General Flood Plain District. a. Upon receipt of an application for a Conditional Use Permit for a use within the General Flood Plain District, the applicant shall be required to furnish such of the following information as is deemed necessary by the Zoning Administrator for the determination of the Regulatory Flood Protection Elevation and whether the proposed use is within the Floodway or Flood Fringe District.
