Discuss Updates to the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Ordinance City Engineer Debra Bloom noted updates to the City's current Erosion and Se- dimentation Control Ordinance, adopted in 2008, as detailed in the RCA dated August 8, 2011. Ms. Bloom advised that some of the additional language was a result of the recent MPCA audit of the City, as well as from practical application. Ms. Bloom noted that the Public Works, Environment and Transportation Com- mission had reviewed the current draft and recommended approval. Ms. Bloom clarified that tonight's presentation was for discussion only; and no formal City Council action was requested until a future meeting. Ms. Bloom reviewed the proposed changes as outlined in the redlined copy of the ordinance (Attachment A); with fees adjusted to cover staff time from escrow funds for any additional inspections or lack of compliance found; as well as mov- ing the ordinance to Section 800 of City Code in the area dealing with storm sew- ers; rather than in the previous location in the City's Zoning Code, since it was re- lated more to storm water permitting rather than zoning. Discussion among Councilmembers included the notification section (page 7, II) and whether e-mail notification was satisfactory under law, with City Attorney Gaughan confirming that it was satisfactory; and the need for consistency regard- ing such notice by the City within 48 hours with Page 6 as well.
