Is my property located within a flood-prone area and does the City have regulations for stormwater control?
The Engineering Division maintains maps depicting the locations of flood-prone areas within the city; Section 19-7, Stormwater Management (Go to the Municipal Code) regulates the location and elevation of all structures proposed to be located within the designated flood zones. In addition, all proposed development must comply with standards regulating the quantity and quality of stormwater runoff.
