A stormwater permit is required prior to any development construction within the City limits to ensure conformance to the stormwater management provisions and other applicable requirements of this Code. Issuance of a site development permit or a final plat for a single-family residential subdivision within the City Limits constitutes approval of a Stormwater Permit for that specific development.
B. The applicant must ensure that the application for a stormwater permit was prepared or reviewed and approved in writing by a licensed professional engineer prior to submission to the City.
C. A stormwater permit will be issued after the City Engineer has determined that the development meets the stormwater and pollution management requirements of Chapter
5 of this Code.
D. Prior to issuance of a stormwater permit, the City Manager or City Council must approve the site plan for projects in the City’s ETJ to ensure any required compliance with this Code.
E. A stormwater permit approved by the City is condition[ed] upon approval of all applicable related permits required from the Texas Environmental Quality Commission (TCEQ), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or any other state or federal agency being issued by that agency. Permits issued by entities such as the EPA, which may issue permits closer in time to construction, shall be made available to the City within seven (7) days after having received such permit(s).
F. The City Engineer is responsible for final action.
