100.0 Findings and Purpose
101.0 Findings:
The City Council of the City hereby finds that:
101.1 Excessive quantities of soil may erode from areas undergoing development for certain non-agricultural
uses including but not limited to the construction of dwelling units,commercial buildings and industrial
plants,the building of roads and highways,the modification of stream channels and drainage ways,
and the creation of recreational facilities;
101.2 The washing,blowing,and falling of eroded soil across and upon roadways endangers the health and
safety of users thereof, by decreasing vision and reducing traction of road vehicles;
101.3 Soil erosion necessitates the costly repairing of gulleys,washed-out fills, and embankments;
101.4 Sediment from soil erosion tends to clog sewers and ditches and to pollute and silt rivers,streams,
lakes,wetlands, and reservoirs;
101.5 Sediment limits the use of water and waterways for most beneficial purposes,promotes the growth of
undesirable aquatic weeds,destroys fish and other desirable aquatic life, and is costly and difficult to
remove; and
101.6 Sediment reduces the channel capacity of waterways and the storage capacity of floodplains and
natural depressions, resulting in increased chances of flooding at risk to public health and safety.
102.0 Purpose:
The City Council therefore declares that the purpose of this ordinance is to safeguard persons,
protect property, prevent damage to the environment, and promote the public welfare by guiding,
regulating and controlling the design, construction, use and maintenance of any development or other
activity that disturbs or breaks the topsoil or otherwise results in the movement of earth on land situated

300.0 General Principles
It is the objective of this ordinance to control soil erosion and sedimentation caused by development
activities, including clearing, grading, stripping, excavating, and filling of land, in the city. Measures
taken to control soil erosion and offsite sediment runoff should be adequate to assure thatsediment is
not transported from the site by a storm event of ten-year frequency or less.The following principles
shall apply to all development activities within the city and to the preparation of the submissions
required under Section 400.0 of this ordinance:
300.1 Development should be related to the topography and soils of the site sous to create the least
potential for erosion.Areas of steep slopes where high cuts and fills may be required should be
avoided wherever possible, and natural contours should be followed as closely as possible.
300.2 Natural vegetation should be retained and protected wherever possible.Areas immediately adjacent
to natural watercourses, lakes, ponds, and wetlands should be left undisturbed wherever possible.
Temporary crossings of watercourses,when permitted, must include appropriate stabilization
measures.
300.3 Special precautions should be taken to prevent damages resultant from any necessary development
activity within or adjacent to any stream, lake, pond,or wetland. Preventative measures should reflect
the sensitivity of these areas to erosion and sedimentation.
300.4 The smallest practical area of land should be exposed for the shortest practical time during
development.
300.5 Sediment basins or traps,filter barriers,diversions,and any other appropriate sediment or runoff control
measures should be installed prior to site clearing and grading and maintained to remove sedimentfrom
run-off waters from land undergoing development.
300.6 The selection of erosion and sedimentation control measures should be based on assessment of the
probable frequency of climatic and other events likely to contribute to erosion,and on evaluation of the
risks, costs, and benefits involved.
300.7 In the design of erosion control facilities and practices, aesthetics and the requirements of continuing
maintenance should be considered.
300.8 Provision should be made to accommodate the increased run-off caused by changed soil and surface
conditions during and after development.Drainage ways should be designed so that their final gradients
and the resultant velocities and rates of discharge will not create additional erosion onsite or downstream.
300.9 Permanent vegetation and structures should be installed and functional as soon as practical during
development.
300.10 Those areas being converted from agricultural purposes to other land uses should be vegetated with
an appropriate protective cover prior to development.
300.11 All waste generated as a result of site development activity should be properly disposed of and
prevented from being carried off the site by either wind or water.
300.12 All construction sites should provide measures to prevent sediment from being tracked onto public or
private roadways.

503.0 Site Desiqn Requirements
503.1 On-site sediment control measures, as specified by the following criteria, shall be constructed and
functional prior to initiating clearing, grading,stripping, excavating or fill activities on the site:
a. For disturbed areas draining less than 1 acre,filter barriers(including filter fences, straw bales, or
equivalent control measures) shall be constructed to control all offsite runoff as specified in
referenced handbooks. Vegetated filter strips,with a minimum width of 25 feet, may be used as
an alternative only where runoff in sheet flow is expected;
b. For disturbed areas draining more than 1 but less than 5 acres,a sediment trap or equivalent control
measure shall be constructed at the downslope point of the disturbed area;
c. For disturbed areas draining more than 5 acres,a sediment basin or equivalent control measure shall
be constructed at the downslope point of the disturbed area;
d. Sediment basins and sediment traps designs shall provide for both detention storage and
sediment storage.The detention storage shall be composed of equal volumes of"wet"detention
storage and "dry"detention storage and each shall be sized for the 2-year,24-hour runoff from the
site under maximum runoff conditions during construction.The release rate of the basin shall be
that rate required to achieve minimum detention times of at least 10 hours.The elevation of the
outlet structure shall be placed such that it only drains the dry detention storage; and
e. The sediment storage shall be sized to store the estimated sediment load generated from the site
over the duration of the construction period with a minimum storage equivalent to the volume of
sediment generated in one year. For construction periods exceeding 1 year,the 1-year sediment
load and a sediment removal schedule may be substituted.
503.2 Stormwater conveyance channels, including ditches, swales, and diversions, and the outlets of all
channels and pipes shall be designed and constructed to withstand the expected flow velocity from the
10-year frequency storm without erosion. All constructed or modified channels shall be stabilized
within 48 hours, consistent with the following standards:
a. For grades up to 4 percent, seeding in combination with mulch, erosion blanket, or an equivalent
control measure shall be applied. Sod or erosion blanket or mat shall be applied to the bottom of the
channel.
b. For grades of 4 to 8 percent, sod or an equivalent control measure shall be applied in the channel.
c. For grades greater than 8 percent, rock, riprap, or an equivalent control measure shall be applied,
or the grade shall be effectively reduced using drop structures.
Page 11 of 15
March 5, 2003
503.3 Disturbed areas shall be stabilized with temporary or permanent measures within 7 calendar days
following the end of active disturbance, or redisturbance, consistent with the following criteria:
a. Appropriate temporary or permanent stabilization measures shall include seeding, mulching,
sodding, and/or non-vegetative measures, and
b. Areas having slopes greater than 12 percent shall be stabilized with sod, mat or blanket in
combination with seeding, or equivalent.
503.4 Land disturbance activities in stream channels shall be avoided,where possible.If disturbance activities
are unavoidable,the following requirements shall be met:
a. Construction vehicles shall be kept out of the stream channel to the maximum extent practicable.
Where construction crossings are necessary,temporary crossings shall be constructed of non-erosive
material,such as riprap or gravel;
b. The time and area of disturbance of stream channels shall be kept to a minimum. The stream
channel, including bed and banks, shall be restabilized within 48 hours after channel disturbance is
completed, interrupted, or stopped; and
c. Whenever channel relocation is necessary,the new channel shall be constructed in the dry and
fully stabilized before flow is diverted.
503.5 Storm sewer inlets and culverts shall be protected by sediment traps or filter barriers meeting accepted
design standards and specifications.
503.6 Soil storage piles containing more than 10 cubic yards of material shall not be located with a down-
slope drainage length of less than 25 feet to a roadway or drainage channel. Filter barriers,including
straw bales, filter fence, or equivalent, shall be installed immediately on the downslope side of the
piles.
503.7 If de-watering devices are used, discharge locations shall be protected from erosion. All pumped
discharges shall be routed through appropriately designed sediment traps, basins, or equivalent.
503.8 Each site shall have graveled (or equivalent) entrance roads, access drives, and parking areas of
sufficient length and width to prevent sediment from being tracked onto public or private roadways.
Any sediment reaching a public or private road shall be removed by shoveling or street cleaning (not
flushing) before the end of each workday and transported to a controlled sediment disposal area.
503.9 All temporary and permanent erosion and sediment control practices must be maintained and repaired
as needed to assure effective performance of their intended function.
503.10 All temporary erosion and sediment control measures shall be disposed of within 30 days after final
site stabilization is achieved with permanent soil stabilization measures. Trapped sediment and
other disturbed soils resulting from the disposition of temporary measures should be permanently
stabilized to prevent further erosion and sedimentation.
504.0 Handbooks Adopted by Reference:
The standards and specifications contained in "Standards and Specifications for Soil Erosion and
Sediment Control" (the Yellow Book) and the "Illinois Procedures and Standards for Urban Soil
Erosion and Sedimentation Control' (the Green Book) cited in Section 400.0, are hereby
incorporated into this Section 500.0 and made a part hereof by reference for the purpose of
delineating procedures and methods of operation under site development and erosion and
sedimentation control plans approved under Section 400.0. In the event of conflict between
provisions of said manuals and of this ordinance,the ordinance shall govern.
Page 12 of 15
March 5, 2003
505.0 Maintenance of Control Measures:
All soil erosion and sediment control measures necessary to meet the requirements of this
ordinance shall be maintained periodically by the applicant or subsequent landowner during the
period of land disturbance and development of the site in a satisfactory manner to ensure adequate
performance.
506.0 Inspection:
The (permitting authority)shall make inspections as hereinafter required and shall either approve
that portion of the work completed or shall notify the permittee wherein the work fails to comply with
the site development or erosion and sedimentation control plan as approved. Plans for grading,
stripping, excavating, and filling work bearing the stamp of approval of the (permitting authority)
shall be maintained at the site during progress of the work. In order to obtain inspections and to
ensure compliance with the approved erosion and sediment control plan,the grading or building
permit, and this Ordinance,the permittee shall notify the (permitting authority)within two (2)working
days of the completion of the construction stages specified below:
1. Upon completion of installation of sediment and runoff control measures(including perimeter controls
and diversions), prior to proceeding with any other earth disturbance or grading,
2. After stripping and clearing,
3. After rough grading,
4. After final grading,
5. After seeding and landscaping deadlines, and
6. After final stabilization and landscaping, prior to removal of sediment controls.
If stripping, clearing,grading and/or landscaping are to be done in phases or areas,the permittee shall
give notice and request inspection at the completion of each of the above work stages in each phase or
area. If an inspection is not made and notification of the results given within five working days after
notice is received by the City from the permittee,the permittee may continue work at his/her own risk,
without presuming acceptance by the (village). Notification of the results of the inspection shall be given
in writing at the site.
507.0 Special Precautions:
507.1 If at any stage of the grading of any development site the (permitting authority) determines by
inspection that the nature of the site is such that further work authorized by an existing permit is
likely to imperil any property, public way,stream, lake,wetland, or drainage structure,the
(permitting authority) may require, as a condition of allowing the work to be done,that such
reasonable special precautions to be taken as is considered advisable to avoid the likelihood of
such peril."Special precautions" may include, but shall not be limited to, a more level exposed
slope, construction of additional drainage facilities, berms,terracing, compaction,or cribbing,
installation of plant materials for erosion control, and recommendations of a registered soils
engineer and/or engineering geologist which may be made requirements for further work.
Page 13 of 15
March 5, 2003
507.2 Where it appears that storm damage may result because the grading on any development site is not
complete,work may be stopped and the permittee required to install temporary structures ortake such
other measures as may be required to protect adjoining property or the public safety. On large
developments or where unusual site conditions prevail,the(permitting authority)may specify the time
of starting grading and time of completion or may require that the operations be conducted in specific
stages so as to insure completion of protective measures or devices prior to the advent of seasonal
rains.
508.0 Amendment of Plans:
Major amendments of the site development or erosion and sedimentation control plans shall be
submitted to the city engineer and shall be processed and approved or disapproved in the same
manner as the original plans. Field modifications of a minor nature may be authorized by the city
engineer by written authorization to the permittee.
600.0 Enforcement
The administration and enforcement of this ordinance shall be the responsibility of the United City
of Yorkville or their authorized representative.
601.0 Appeals:
Any applicant may appeal any decision of the city engineer to the City Council, provided that no
such appeal shall be considered until and unless the applicant has requested a conference with
the city engineer(not a subordinate of the city engineer) and either the conference has been held
or the city engineer has not scheduled a conference.
602.0 Conferences:
At any time an applicant may ask for a conference with the city engineer concerning any application
under this ordinance, and the city engineer will meet with the applicant to discuss the matter. If an
applicant has been dealing with any person working under the supervision of the city engineer, at
the applicant's request the city engineer(and not a subordinate)will hold a conference with the
applicant.
