CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA ITEM 6E
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Jason Wedel
MEETING DATE: April 22, 2013
TOPIC: Consideration of Resolution No. 13 -49, Approving
Stormwater Maintenance Agreement with RCWD, Otter
Lake Road Extension Project
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
Staff is requesting council action to approve a stormwater maintenance agreement with the Rice
Creek Watershed District (RCWD) covering stormwater facilities constructed as part of the Otter
Lake Road Extension project.
BACKGROUND
The improvement project includes the construction of stormwater facilities, i.e., catch basins,
pipe, and ponds to convey street surface water and provide water treatment prior to entering
public waters. The City is subject to the permit requirements of the Rice Creek Watershed
District (RCWD). The RCWD board issued a conditional approval for permit 13 -002 on March
4, 2013. Condition 4 of the permit requires the City to enter into a maintenance agreement for all
onsite stormwater features.
The agreement requires the City to perform inspections and maintenance on the stormwater
facilities. This includes annual inspections of lines and structures. Ponds are required to be
inspected once annually in the first two years following construction and every five years
thereafter. These requirements are generally consistent with the parameters the city already
operates under with the exception of the line and structure inspections which we perform on a
five year basis.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending approval of Resolution No. 13 -49.
