10-5-5: OFF SITE STORMWATER IMPROVEMENT CONSTRUCTION CHARGE:
In accordance with the water resources management plan as a condition of the subdivision approval, subdividers shall pay a charge for the construction of off site stormwater improvement. The square foot charge shall be established by resolution of the city council. The subdivision will be given a credit for any on site stormwater improvement that has been oversized to serve property outside the subdivision. The charge for lots oversized due to individual on site sewage disposal and water systems will be reduced to the charge that would be imposed on a one-half (1/2) acre lot. An additional charge will then be imposed if the lot is further subdivided less a credit for the charge previously paid. The charge shall be based upon the gross acreage of the subdivision less the area to be dedicated to the city for stormwater basins, parks and wetland, and right of way for state highways, county roads, local arterial roadways and major collectors.
