City of Centerville City Council Meeting Minutes April 9, 2025 Glaser stated the watershed district is basically for development and the DNR would be for all the water ways. Interim City Administrator Lewis stated that she would research the matter. V.PUBLIC HEARING 1.MS4/SWPPP Annual Public Input Meeting Interim City Administrator Lewis stated that every year the city must hold a public hearing regarding the CityÓs storm sewer system permit, which is included in the councilÓs packet. At this public hearing the city invites the public to give input on the cityÓs Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). Ms. Kellie Schlegel, the CityÓs Engineer, reviewed the information in the council packet regarding MS4. She stated that Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) is owned by the state, city or village or other public entity that discharges to waters of the U.S. ItÓs designed to use or collect or convey stormwater, not combined with sewer. Also, itÓs not part of a publicly owned treatment sewage system. She reviewed who was involved with the stormwater management regulations in Centerville and the impact of municipal operations. She also stated that there are 6 minimum control measures for the city to remain in compliance; the criteria are as follows: public education and outreach, public participation and involvement, illicit discharge detection and elimination, construction site storm water runoff control, post- construction storm water management, and pollution preventions and good housekeeping for municipal operations. Ms. Schlegel reviewed how Centerville currently complies with the MS4 permit, referencing information in the packet. Mayor Golden opened the Public Hearing for the MS4/SWPPP at 6:45 p.m. Motion by Council Member Koski, seconded by Council Member Kubat, to close the Public Hearing regarding the MS4/SWPPP at 6:50 p.m. Roll Call: Mayor Golden, Council Members, Kubat, Koski, Rios in favor. Council Member Mosher was unable to vote due to technical difficulties. Motion carried. Council Member Koski stated that he had a couple of comments. He stated that over the years we have had several public hearings on storm water runoff. He feels that itÓs important when he sees residents mowing the lawn and raking leaves that these materials are not getting blown into the street because if they are then the clippings and leaves end up in rivers, streams and lakes. Council Member Koski asked Interim City Administrator Lewis about the storm water ponds with the inlets and outlets. She stated that she received information from Mr. Peterson, Interim Public Works Director, that they are on a five-year evaluation schedule. Council Member Koski wanted it known that the city should educate residents, especially those that live around the ponds as to why they should be kept clean and the cost to do so.
