Sorry, my voice mail got cut off, but here is the challenge. The way the language is written for
the Storm water and Drainage "and for any property required to submit a storm water drainage
plan, a storm water fee will then be assessed" On many of the existing lot this has not
happened. So, this makes the 17,000 bench mark for SFU's not really consistent.
... Perhaps, If the language was changed to state something like, " a storm water drainage fee
will be assessed for all property (including commercial, industrial and agricultural) located
within an IGA, UBG, Urban Development Node etc,.and or unless otherwise stated in a storm
water drainage plan (AKA Via PW's referrals). Then we can automatically assess this fee at the
time of building permits in these areas. All other permits, will only be assess if they require a
unique study.. This will eliminate most of the RE lots, but could catch the problem ones.
A written , I am concerned that no one has determined when and where to require these
drainage studies, therefore DPS staff will not know if a fee should be assessed.
Just a thought, what do you guys think??
