[Ord. No. 2010-1621 §1, 4-20-2010]
The purpose of this Article is to supplement regulations and
standards established in this Chapter to effectively mitigate soil
erosion, sedimentation and stormwater (collectively "surface water")
runoff during and following any land disturbance including grading,
building and landscaping.
[Ord. No. 2010-1621 §1, 4-20-2010]
A. Any
application for a building, demolition or grading permit which would
result in the following shall be accompanied with a erosion, sedimentation
and stormwater control plan:
1. A decrease in the permeable surface of a lot, or
2. An alteration to the existing grade or elevation of a lot, or
3. A change in the existing flow in terms of location, direction, rate
or volume of surface water from a lot shall be accompanied by detailed
plans and calculations identifying and comparing pre-construction
grading and post-construction grading relative to erosion, sedimentation
track out, stormwater runoff and grade/elevation conditions.
4. The City may require the following to be include in this plan if
not otherwise required elsewhere in this Chapter:
a. Proposed dates, timing and sequencing of the project including installation
of sediment controls, clearing, rough grading, construction, paving,
final grading and landscaping.
b. Effective control of surface water runoff to ensure soil and sediment
is contained on the site during any land disturbance or other development
activities and after any such development activities, including details
of any temporary drainage or impoundment systems.
c. Measures to be taken to control sediment track out onto roadways
and adjacent property including temporary access routes.
d. Existing and proposed topography of the development site including
existing and proposed direction of runoff flow.
e. Calculations showing the percentage of existing and proposed impervious
surface relative to the entire site.
f. Calculations showing existing and proposed final peak discharge rates.
g. Drawing(s) indicating all proposed stormwater runoff facilities and
their tie-in to existing stormwater drainage routes.
h. Landscape plans indicating soil preparation and revegetation methods.
i. The name(s), addressee(s) and telephone number(s) of the engineering
firm(s) and registered professional engineer(s) who designed the documents.
j. The name, address and telephone number of the property owner.
k. Other drawings or specifications reasonably required by the City
to assess stormwater runoff and to assure that stormwater will be
collected, retained, detained or otherwise controlled so as not to
increase runoff onto any adjacent properties or public improvements
or rights-of-way.
l. Approval from the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District ("MSD") and
the Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) when applicable and, if
the subject property is located in a subdivision, consent of the subdivision
trustees, if applicable.
[Ord. No. 2010-1621 §1, 4-20-2010]
A. No
land disturbing, construction or other associated activities shall
be permitted to deposit mud, soil, earth, sand, gravel, rock, stone,
concrete, building or other materials on streets and/or adjoining
property. Trucks and other construction equipment shall be cleaned
on site to prevent mud from being tracked onto any street.
B. If
mud, material or debris is deposited on any street and/or adjoining
property, the general contractor, developer or owner responsible for
the development site concerned shall be notified and shall abate the
violation within four (4) hours of notification.
C. Notification
may be made by telephone, fax, personal contact or site posting. The
notice will include the time notified and deadline for abating the
violation.
D. If
the violation is not abated within four (4) hours, the City will cause
the violation to be abated at the property owner's expense. The escrow
or bond posted pursuant to the building regulations of the Code of
Ordinances of the City of Frontenac shall be used to satisfy the cost
of abating any violation of this Section, with any excess costs beyond
proceeds and recoveries from the bond to be paid to the City by the
property owner.
