AGENDA ITEMS
1. Ordinance Amendment: Chapter 268, Stormwater Post Construction
Richard explained that the amendment Chapter 268, Stormwater, would specifying a time frame of 60 days for owners of
stormwater management structures to make needed repairs and submit evidence of the repairs to the City.
The City discharges stormwater in accordance with the MS4 Permit issued to it by the Maine DEP. The Permit dated
October 15, 2020 requires that owners of stormwater management structures repair deficiencies within 60 days and
provide a record of the repairs to the City within 60 days. The current ordinance does not meet this requirement as it states
that the owner of the stormwater structure must take corrective actions to address deficiencies, but does not specify a time
limit as to when that action must be completed, nor does it require a record of the deficiency and corrective action to be
submitted to the City. Amending Chapter 268 will keep the City in compliance with the MS4 Permit.
