[Amended 12-3-2008 by L.L. No. 4-2008]
All lots, houses and buildings will be serviced
by an underground storm sewer lateral, where available (six-inch minimum
interior diameter), which must be connected to the storm sewer and
extended to the house or building.
All storm laterals must be connected so that
back flooding from the storm sewer is improbable. A two-foot vertical
riser at the house wall is recommended.
All houses and buildings will be equipped with
a basement or cellar drainage crock and sump pump connected to the
storm lateral at the house or building with an exposed check valve.
[Added 12-3-2008 by L.L. No. 4-2008]
All lots, houses and buildings shall meet any additional applicable requirements for building and lot drainage as are established in the current design criteria and construction standards (see Chapter
223). In the event that there are no storm sewers, roof drainage shall be piped away from building foundation toward the front or rear of the lot, and away from the side lot lines less than 20 feet from the building.
