<br /> March 10, 2025 Meeting – Item 6 <br />which the City began to impose stormwater quality (pollution reduction) standards on partitions, subdivisions and PUDs. Staff believes that this exemption, as revised, addresses concerns raised by Mr. Butler and also moves the City’s code in the direction required by the current NPDES requirements. This exemption, as revised, is included in the ordinance at “Ordinance -- Page 3 of 10” as follows: <br />54. For the cConstruction of a single-unit dwelling or duplex on a lot or parcel that was <br />created by a land division application submitted and approved by the City prior to <br />between July 14, 2006 and March 1, 2014, that is consistent with the approved land <br />use application and the City’s stormwater quality (pollution reduction) standards in place <br />at the time of the land division application; or In addition to the correction of one typographical error, the ordinance attached to this AIS, for your proposed adoption, includes a different effective date (July 1, 2025) than the May, 2025, date that was included in the ordinance presented for the City Council’s public hearing.
