PUBLIC HEARING. <br />16 <br />17 A. Ordinance 2022-09 — An Ordinance Amending Section 50.16 of Chapter 50 Storm Water <br />18 and Sanitary Sewers. <br />19 <br />20 City Engineer Justin Messner reviewed this is the first reading of the Ordinance and City Staff <br />21 has worked closely with the Metropolitan Council of Environmental Services (MCES) to <br />22 establish a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) related to the Ongoing Inflow and Infiltration <br />23 (1/I) Program. City Council approved the MOU under resolution 22-052 at the June 14, 2022, <br />24 City Council Meeting. Under the terms of the MOU, the City has agreed to adopt and implement <br />25 ordinances which will require an amendment to the City Code Section 50.16 of the Chapter 50 <br />26 Storm Water and Sanitary Sewers. <br />27 <br />28 The proposed language in the amendment established a "point of sale" I/I inspection of all <br />29 sanitary sewer service laterals. As such, when existing homes and commercial properties within <br />30 the City are sold, the City will administer an ongoing program requiring a video condition <br />31 inspection of the sanitary sewer service lateral. The City's current ordinance requires a "point of <br />32 sale" 1/1 inspection of sump pump systems only, so the proposed language adds sanitary sewer <br />33 service inspection to the "point of sale" inspection. <br />34 <br />35 The proposed language in the amendment sets forth a timeline and defines compliance, <br />36 violations, penalties, and temporary waivers as a result of the "point of sale" I/I inspection. <br />37 <br />38 Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the proposed amendment to the City Code <br />39 establishing a "point of sale" I/I inspection for sanitary sewer service laterals as reflected in the <br />40 ordinance redline version. <br />41 <br />42 Mayor Stille asked about the cost and the potential for a match from the Met Council. Mr. <br />43 Messner stated they are reviewing the grants available and there is currently nothing for private <br />44 properties. Mr. Messner stated St. Anthony has been on the 1/1 watch list for a number of years. <br />45 <br />46 Mayor Stille opened the Public Hearing at 7:16 p.m. <br />
