HomeMy WebLinkAbout10 Storm Water Management Ordinance 93-04 AGENDA: PREPARED BY: SUBJECT: DATE: 10 JOEL RUTHERFORD, WATER RESOURCES COORDINATOR DISCUSS IMPLEMENTATION OF STORM WATER MANAGEMENT ORDINANCES 93-05, 93-06, AND 93-07. FEBRUARY 16, 1993 INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this Agenda item is to discuss changes in the City Code that deal with storm water management. These changes are required by the Metropolitan Council, as part of their strategy to reduce nonpoint source pollution to all metropolitan water bodies. BACKGROUND: The Metropolitan Council's strategy to reduce nonpoint source pollution to all metropolitan water bodies, includes three requirements for local governments. These requirements are as follows: (1) Adopt design standards for new storm water ponds that will reduce the contaminant loadings from surface water runoff, such as those from the National Urban Runoff Program (NURP) ; (2) Local governments in the metropolitan area must follow the "best manageme~t practices" (BMP'S) as outlined 1n Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas, published by the M1nnesota Pollution Control Agency, or an equivalent set of standards. The "best management practices" manual, which is about 300 pages, is available for review at City Hall; and (3) Adopt the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources current shore 1 and regulations. Local governments will be required to adopt these elements before the Metropolitan Council will approve Comprehensive Plan Amendments. At their meeting on Council passed a Comprehensive Plan. October motion Part of 12, to this 1992, City amend the amendment 4629 Dakota St. S.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372 / Ph. (612) 4474230 / Fax (612) 447-4245 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER DISCUSSION: ACTION REQUIRED: included the adoJ;>tion of "Best Management Practices", Wh1Ch falls under the Metropolitan Council's requirement (2). Although these standards have been adopted as part of the comprehensive plan, the enclosed ordinance is required to incorporate these standards into the city Code. Attached to the agenda is a listing of additions and amendments that will incorporate requirements (1) and (2) into the City Code. Requirement (3), dealing with new shoreland regulations, is a separate agenda item (#8). To help understand each addition or amendment, a narrative is included, describing the intent or reason for each change. Because the proposed changes affect both the Subdivision and Zoning Ordinances, the Planning Commission will be required to hold a Public Hearing for the Subdivision and Zoning Code amendments. This item will be on their agenda for March 4, 1993. At the City Council meeting on March IS, 1993, Council will hold a Public Hearin9 for changes that are not part of the Subdiv1sion and Zoning Code. At that meeting, staff will recommend adoption of Ordinance 93-05, amending the Subdivision Code, Ordinance 93-06, amendin9 the Zoning Code, and Ordinance 93-07, amend1ng the Code in areas not included in Ordinances 93-05 and 93-06. The purpose of this item on the agenda is to advise City Council of changes in the City Code and to receive feedback on these changes. Prior to adoption, staff will discuss these changes with the City Attorney and have the appropriate ordinance written before the final drafts are presented to the Planning commission and City council. The standards proposed to be implemented into the Cit~ Code, though required by the Metropol1tan Council, will benefit Prior Lake residents by ensuring sound storm water management practices to all land disturbing activities. The methods and procedures, when applied, will reduce the contaminant loadings from surface water runoff, thus improving water quality in the lakes, wetlands, streams, and waterways of Prior Lake. No action required, other than a review and discussion of Council's comments and modifications. IThe following addition, as part of the Excavations During Building Construction section of the Code, will require an applicant of new building permits to submit an erosion control plan for any activity that may disturb the land on or adjacent to the property that the building permit is being aJ;>plied for. [Included in Ord1nance 93-07] Add: 4-6-3 (L) Submit a erosion control plan to the Building Inspection Department, using methods as outlined in the 1989 edition of Protectin9 Water Quality in Urban Areas, published by the M1nnesota Pollution Control Agency, or an equivalent set of standards. No permit shall be issued until the erosion control plan is approved by the City Engineer. The erosion control plan requirement does not apply to: 1. Any J;>art of a subdivision if a plat for the subd1vision has been approved by the City Council on or before March 1, 1993. 2. Any land disturbing activity for which plans have been approved by the watershed management organization on or before March 1, 1993. 3. A lot for which a building permit has been approved on or before March 1, 1993. 4. Installation of fence, sign, telephone, and electric poles and other kinds of posts or poles. 5. Emergency work to protect life, limb, or property. The following amendment applies to section 5-5-11 of the Code, which lists the requirements for P.U.D. applications (part of the Zoning Code.)
