Stormwater Management
What is Stormwater?
- As rain falls on surfaces such as driveways or parking lots, it picks up oil, antifreeze and grease deposited by cars.
- Rain that flows from your yard to the streets can carry fertilizer, pesticides, pet waste, leaves, and soil.
It all enters the stormwater system including our creeks and rivers.
- Fertilizers promote algae growth which can be toxic to animals and people.
- Pesticides and pet waste can cause deformities and disease in fish.
- Soil causes cloudy water that hides or kills food sources for fish.
- Leaves and litter clog storm drains causing street flooding.
- Oil grease and antifreeze pollute our water.
What is Required by the City?
- The Engineering Design Standards Manual provides guidance for stormwater regulations.
