Many of the changes, related to stormwater management, came at the <br />request of municipalities and property owners within the district. The City's existing <br />requirements within Chapter 1011 of City Code are based on the previous RCWD Rules. Staff <br />has been working with WSB to amend our code requirements for consistency with the RCWD. <br />While the draft ordinance includes several organizational changes the primary modifications <br />are related to stormwater rate and volume requirements contained in subsection 1011.011. A <br />summary of the proposed changes, by section, is attached. <br />The City Council approved the 1St Reading on October 12, 2015. Due to the length of the <br />ordinance staff is requesting council consideration of a ordiance summary for publication <br />purposes. A full copy of the ordinance will be available for public review at City Hall and <br />posted on the City website. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff is recommending approval of the 1st Reading of Ordinance No. 09-15 and Resolution No. <br />15-123. <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />1.
