(a) The developer shall provide in every subdivision, storm drains, culverts, drainageways or other works adequate to collect and dispose of all water originating on or flowing across the property without inundating or damaging neighboring streets, roads, lots or other properties. All systems shall be designed in accordance with specifications and comply with adopted City policies and ordinances, where applicable.
(b) Wherever curbs and gutters are provided or when the City Engineer determines the natural surface drainage to be inadequate, the subdivider shall construct a storm drainage system with catch basins appropriately spaced along the streets in the subdivision.
(c) In the design of a storm drainage system for a subdivision, the present and future expected runoff from the larger drainage areas shall be required. It may be required that larger sewers than those needed to service the immediate subdivision be installed, and certification by a registered professional engineer stating that all proposed drainage facilities are adequately designed to safely handle surface drainage from a higher watershed area shall be provided to the City Engineer.
