Program Description

Stormwater and Floodplain Management

The Stormwater Management Program is responsible for identifying and finding sources of funding for capital stormwater improvement projects, administering the City’s Stormwater Management Plan, interpret stormwater rules, provide expert technical guidance to staff and the community, updates to the City Code stormwater and drainage provisions. Participate in the development of National and State storm and clean water legislation affecting the City. This program is funded through the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).

Improvements Proposed for City's Stormwater Management Process

Trends

Until fully staffed, the Division will have to limit activities to Federal, Council and Code mandates with very reduced availability for assistance to the public and City staff.

Program Broad Goals

Assure staff and citizens are adequately warned of impending weather that may have disastrous consequences, assure that the weather response plan is functional. Administer the sampling of stormwater run-off to detect pollutants, assure inspections of the stormwater system, assure development requirements and implementation are adequate to meet regulations, and the Stormwater Management Program begins preparation of the next 5 year CIP.

Administer and provide direction to City staff in maintaining the City’s high rating complying with the Federal Emergency Management Act flood mitigation &insurance mandate.
