Drainage courses. Whenever any stream or improved surface drainage course is located
in an area that is being subdivided, the subdivider shall dedicate an adequate right-of-way
along each side of the stream for the purpose of widening, deepening, sloping, improving,
or protecting the stream or for drainage maintenance. For all drainage courses having
a bottom width or normal water surface of five (5) feet or more, the subdivider shall
dedicate a right-of-way having a width of five (5) feet for every one foot of bottom
width. For example, a twenty-five-foot right-of-way shall be dedicated for all drainage
courses having a bottom width of five (5) feet. All surface drainage courses shall
have sufficient right-of-way width for at least four to one (4:1) side slope, or side
slopes having at least one foot of horizontal distance for each one foot of vertical
drop. (Drainage right-of-way shall not be considered a part of street right-of-way.)
An overall drainage contour map shall be provided by the developer (showing all flows
entering the tract and all outflow structures) at the time of submission of the final
plat.
