The City of Lancaster may include all costs incurred in the
review fee charged to an applicant.
The review fee may include, but not be limited to, costs for
the following:
A. Administrative and clerical costs.
B. Review of the SWM site plan.
C. Review of the stormwater operation and maintenance plan and agreement
by the City Solicitor/staff.
E. Any additional work required to enforce any permit provisions regulated
by this chapter, correct violations, and assure proper completion
of stipulated remedial actions.
If the Director, or the Director's designee, determines
that the installation of GI and BMPs is impractical due to existing
site constraints, both on-site and off-site, the Director may allow
the stormwater permit applicant to pay a stormwater runoff mitigation
fee in lieu of meeting the requirements of this chapter, in whole
or in part, which must be paid prior to the issuance of a building
permit or any development of the property. The amount of fees and
the schedule for payment of fees shall be established by resolution
of the Council of the City of Lancaster adopted from time to time
upon recommendation of the Director of Public Works. Additional policies
and procedures related to this process may be provided by the Director
in the GI Design Manual.
