(1988 Code §71.07) <br /> <br />Subd. 1. Purpose: In adopting this ordinance, the City Council finds that the discharge of <br />water from any roof, surface, ground, sump pump, footing tile or other natural <br />precipitation into the City sewerage system will and has on occasions in the past, <br />flooded and overloaded the sewerage system to such an extent as to cause significant <br />and grave damage to the property of large numbers of City residents. Such damage <br />is caused by the backup of sewage into the living quarters of residents, an increase in <br />sewage treatment costs, and in addition to other damage creates a hazard to health. <br />The City Council, therefore, finds it essential to the maintenance of health and to <br />minimize sewage treatment costs and damage to property that the provisions of this <br />ordinance be strictly enforced to avoid emergencies in the future.
