(3) 

A detailed plan of the proposed mobile home park or of the proposed alteration, modification, or extension of an existing park, prepared by a registered engineer or land surveyor to a scale of 80 feet to the inch showing:

(a) 

All mobile home lots, park streets, water and sewer systems, and proposed sites for individual sewerage disposal facilities if their use is intended.

(b) 

Required buffer zones, open space, playgrounds, and parking areas.

(c) 

Watercourses and other bodies of water, natural or artificial.

(e) 

Statement of proposed surface drainage system, including storm drainage flow direction of the mobile home park and adjacent properties and evidence that existing drainage systems, natural or man-made, are of sufficient size to contain the maximum runoff from the site without flooding or erosion.
