           Priority Outcome: Create a more livable and sustainable city
           This program is the lead division responsible for managing flood control protection and stormwater pollution
           abatement programs for the City. This is accomplished through development and implementation of projects
           to comply with public health and stormwater regulatory requirements. This program is charged with this
           responsibility under the legal mandate of the Federal Clean Water Act. Each county and municipality
           throughout the nation is issued a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal
           Stormwater Permit, which regulates the treatment and abatement of stormwater discharges from large
           municipal storm drain systems.  The NPDES Permit also enforces Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL)
           requirements, which limit the maximum amount of a pollutant that a water body can receive and still meet
           water quality standards.

             8. Low Impact Development Plan Check Services                       699,354          -     1,033,897
                Continue funding and resolution authority for seven positions
                consisting of one Civil Engineer, two Civil Engineering
                Associate IIs, one Environmental Engineering Associate III,
                and three Environmental Engineering Associate IIs to staff the
                Low Impact Development service counter. The Low Impact
                Development program mitigates stormwater runoff and
                improves water quality by requiring development and
                redevelopment projects to use on-site measures to capture,
                infiltrate, and reuse rainwater when feasible. Funding is
                provided by the Stormwater Pollution Abatement Fund and
                partially offset by permit fees. Related costs consist of
                employee benefits.
