7 City Council/ Successor Agency Agenda Item Summary Agenda Item: Meeting Date: XXX January 24, 2017 Agenda Section Agenda Item Title Staff Contact Eric Janzen, Engineering Technician Consideration of and possible action introducing and waiving the first reading of Ordinance No. xxx-2017 amending Chapter 16.10, Storm Water, of the City of Cloverdale Municipal Code. The amendment would provide the City of Cloverdale the authority, as required under the current Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Phase 1 Permit, to regulate storm water discharges into its system, to exempt specific nonstorm water discharges and to enforce low-impact development best management practices (LID BMPs). Summary On July 1, 2013, the City joined Sonoma County, the Sonoma County Water Agency (SCWA) and the City of Santa Rosa as co-permittees in National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit #CA for Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4 Phase 1 Permit). Under the provisions of this permit the City is responsible for management of discharges into and from its storm water system. On October 8, 2015, the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, North Coast Region (Regional Board) adopted Order No. R , National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit No. CA and Waste Discharge Requirements for Discharges from the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4 Phase I Permit) which went into effect on January 6, As a Co-Permittee, the City is required to comply with the requirements of the MS4 Phase I Permit. Chapter of the City s Municipal Code sets forth local control measures and other actions necessary to reduce pollutants in storm water and non-storm water discharges to the City s MS4. The City must update Chapter of its Municipal Code to ensure that its provisions are consistent with the current MS4 Phase I Permit and that the City possesses all necessary legal authority to comply with and implement the MS4 Phase I Permit. Ordinance No. xxx-2017 amends CMC Chapter to provide the City will full authority to enforce the current version of the MS4 Phase 1 permit. Revision Highlights 1) Article I has been retitled as Purpose and General Provisions. 2) Article II has been re-titled as Regulations and Requirements. 3) New Article III Inspection, Monitoring, and Notification has been added starting with Section ) Section Purpose and Section Definitions have been re-worded to more closely adhere to language and terminology used in the MS4 Phase 1 permit currently in effect. 5) Multiple sections have been re-organized so as to list them under the appropriate Article. Subsequent to the first reading of the proposed Storm Water Ordinance, the Ordinance would be brought back before Council, at the next meeting, for the second reading, consideration of adoption and to authorize the City Attorney to issue a letter to the Regional Board ratifying that the City has authority to enforce the provisions of the MS4 Phase 1 permit. The Ordinance would be in full effect 30 days after adoption.

8 Options 1. Introduce and waive the first reading of the Storm Water Ordinance, or 2. Introduce and perform the first reading of the Storm Water Ordinance, or 3. Provide other direction to Staff. Budget/Financial Impact Unknown - The City has been mandated by the State to adopt and implement storm water regulations. Approving the ordinance follows through with the City s prior commitment to enforce the provisions of the MS4 Phase I Permit. Subcommittee Recommendation This item was presented to the Public Works Subcommittee on January 24, Recommended Council Actions Introduce and waive the first reading of Ordinance No. xxx-2017 amending Municipal Code Chapter 16.10, Storm Water. Attachments: Draft Ordinance No. xxx-2017 Draft Letter to Regional Board (to be signed by Jose M. Sanchez City Attorney)
