First Reading on Ordinance 868, An Ordinance Creating a New Chapter to <br /> Title 900 Regulating Illicit Discharge and Connections to Storm Drainage <br /> System. <br /> Public Works Director DeBar stated that the City's storm water drainage system was required to <br /> have a municipal separate storm sewer system, otherwise known as an MS4 General Permit. <br /> This allows the City to discharge storm water runoff to lakes, rivers and streams.
