Within an existing dike system, ring dikes around individual farmsteads shall not require dike permits if they are not provided with tiebacks to existing roadways or dikes. Ring dikes provided with tiebacks shall be considered part of the overall dike system and will be required to secure diking permits. Outside the dike system there shall be no limitations on tiebacks of dikes around farmsteads. However, appropriate authorization must be obtained from the local land use authority consistent with adopted codes or ordinances.
