§ 40-76. Street elevations.
Latest version.
No street shall be approved if it is more than one foot below flood elevation as established by the engineering authority. The planning commission may require, where necessary, profiles and elevations of streets for areas subject to flood. Fill, as approved or directed by the engineering authority, may be used on streets. Drainage openings shall be designed so as not to restrict the flow of water and unduly increase backwater flood heights.
