(All items were explained during the briefing session.)
1. Call for a Public Hearing on Tuesday, April 17, 2007, at 7:00 P.M., for the
Consideration of a Proposed Residential Growth Management System Ordinance for the
Brawley School Road Peninsula: (See the Special Meeting Minutes of this date for additional
information regarding this ordinance.)
2. Request for Review of Text Amendments to the Soil Erosion and Sedimentation
Control Ordinance as Recommended by the State and to Call for a Public Hearing on
May 1, 2007 for Official Adoption of the Revised Ordinance: Erosion Control Administrator
Mark Selquist said that on December 5, 2006, the board adopted a soil erosion ordinance which
was forwarded to the state for review. He said the state suggested a few revisions, and a public
hearing was necessary to finalize the document. Selquist said the revisions were minor, but they
were necessary to fully comply with the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act.
3. Request for Adoption of a Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Program
(SESCP) Fee Schedule: Selquist said fees were needed for the newly created soil erosion
program effective June 1. He said the fees would be for sites where one acre or more (one half
acre or more in a water supply watershed area) of land was disturbed. Selquist said a formal erosion
control plan would be submitted, and once the site was permitted, an inspection would be needed on
a regular basis. He then shared the recommended fees as follows:
Plan Review - Each disturbed acre or any part thereof ................................................... $135.00
- Water Supply Watershed (less than one (1) acre) ..................................$50.00
Revised Plan Review - Per acre or part thereof................................................................ $50.00
Permit Placard (if needed).................................................................................................. $5.00
Notice of Violation
Varies based on severity, adherence to approved plan, prior record, whether the violation was
committed willfully, amount of money saved by noncompliance, cost of rectifying the damage, and
staff investigative costs. The minimum fine is $500 per acre or part thereof per day.
Re -inspection Fee (required after Notice of Violation) ..................................................$125.00
If a site is out of compliance, it will receive a Notice of Violation. Any project that is under an
NOV may not have any activity (i.e., building inspections) until the site is brought into compliance,
the required fine is paid to the Iredell County Finance Department, and the re -inspection fee has
been paid. Fines and re -inspection fees may NOT be billed on an account.
Proiect Management Fee................................................................................................$50.00
A project management fee is assessed only on sites that are not required to submit an erosion
control plan (less than one acre outside water supply watersheds or less than one-half acre inside a
water supply watershed) and only after county inspectors have investigated a complaint and found
that the site is not in compliance with erosion control laws.
