Any person who undertakes or causes to be undertaken land development or redevelopment shall ensure that soil erosion, sedimentation, increased pollutant loads, and changed water flow characteristics resulting from the activity are controlled to minimize pollution of receiving waters and minimize any increased threat of localized flooding. The requirements of this title are minimum standards and a person’s compliance shall not relieve the person from existing duties relating to stormwater or to enacting measures and best management practices necessary to minimize pollution of receiving waters, and minimize threat of localized flooding resulting from increased runoff or impacted drainage systems as a result of development. By approving a plan under this title, the City does not accept responsibility for the design, installation, and operation and maintenance of stormwater BMPs unless specifically agreed to in a separate agreement.
