shall be connected to adjacent bulkheads. In cases where no adjacent
bulkhead or bulkheads exist, a wing wall or wing walls shall be con-
structed from the bulkhead landward adequate to contain the fill behind

the bulkhead shall generally be used in determining the allowable set
backs for piers and floats. Because there are certain physical con-
ditions which preclude the strict application of this policy without
prejudice to adjoining properties, Council approval will be required
in areas where precise projections of the property line have not been
determined and the following conditions exist:
