.010 New Development and Significant Redevelopment.
(1) Beginning January 12, 1995, and continuing thereafter, all new development and significant redevelopment within the City of Anaheim shall be undertaken in accordance with:
(i) A water quality management plan, which shall be prepared in accordance with the development project guidance, as defined herein; and
(ii) Any conditions and requirements established by the Public Works Department, which are reasonably related to the reduction or elimination of pollutants in storm water runoff from the project site.
(2) Prior to the issuance by the City of Anaheim of a grading permit, building permit and/or conditional use permit for any new development or significant redevelopment, the property owner shall submit to and obtain the approval of the Public Works Department of a water quality management plan. If the new development or significant redevelopment will be approved without application for a grading permit, building permit or conditional use permit, the property owner shall submit to and obtain the approval of the Public Works Department of a water quality management plan prior to the issuance of a discretionary land use approval or, at the City's discretion, prior to recordation of a subdivision map.
(3) Notwithstanding the foregoing Sections 10.09.050.010(1) and 10.09.050.010(2) where only one single-family detached residence is to be constructed, a water quality management plan shall not be required unless the City of Anaheim Public Works Department determines that the construction may result in the discharge of significant levels of a pollutant into a tributary to the Storm Water Drainage System.
(4) Compliance with the conditions and requirements of a water quality management plan shall not exempt any person from the requirement to independently comply with each provision of the ordinance codified in this chapter.
(5) If the Director determines that the project will have a de minimis impact on the quality of the storm water runoff, it may issue a written waiver of the requirement for preparation and approval of a water quality management plan.
(6) The Director may determine that a water quality management plan is required for ongoing operations. If such a determination is made, the applicant must obtain an operational discharge permit from the City after the construction phase is completed, and must maintain this permit during the life of the operation of the project.
(7) Each water quality management plan shall name a responsible party for the project.
(8) The owner of a new development or significant redevelopment project, their successors and assigns, and each named responsible party, shall implement and adhere to the terms, conditions and requirements of the approved water quality management plan.
(i) Each day the owner of the property, their successors or assigns, or a named responsible party fails to implement and adhere to the terms, conditions and requirements of an approved water quality management plan shall constitute a separate violation of the ordinance codified in this chapter.
(9) The City Public Works Department may require that the water quality management plan be recorded with the County Recorder's office by the property owner. The signature of the owner of the property, any successive owner or the named responsible party shall be sufficient for the recording of the plan or any revised plan and a signature on behalf of the City shall not be required for recordation.
.020 Cost Recovery. The costs and expenses of the City Public Works Department, as established by resolution, incurred in the review, approval, or revision of any water quality management plan shall be assessed to the property owner or responsible party and shall be due and payable to the City.
The City Public Works Department may elect to require a deposit of estimated costs and expenses, in accordance with said resolution, and the actual costs and expenses shall be deducted from the deposit, and the balance, if any, refunded to the property owner or responsible party.
