(A) No application for development will be approved unless it includes a stormwater management plan detailing in concept how runoff and associated water quality impacts resulting from the development will be controlled or managed. This plan must indicate whether stormwater will be managed on-site or off-site and, if on-site, the general location and type of practices. The Stormwater Procedures Manual outlines accepted design criteria and the information required for submittal in the stormwater management plan.
(B) For development or redevelopment occurring on a previously developed site, an applicant shall be required to include within the stormwater concept plan, measures for controlling existing stormwater runoff discharges from the site in accordance with the standards of this subchapter to the maximum extent practicable.
(C) The stormwater management plan(s) must be signed by a licensed professional engineer (PE), who will verify that the design of all stormwater management practices meet the submittal requirements outlined in the Stormwater Procedures Manual or EPAs National Menu of Stormwater Best Management Practices, as applicable. No land disturbance permit shall be issued until a satisfactory final stormwater management plan, or a waiver thereof, has been reviewed and approved by the city. The review process will determine that the plan or waiver is consistent with the requirements of this subchapter. By approving a plan under this chapter, the city does not accept responsibility for the design, installation, and operation and maintenance of stormwater BMPs.
