WX <br />80 Section 802.11.13 <br />81 At the request of Member Cihacek related to costs, Mr. Schwartz advised that he <br />82 would check to ensure this was typical ordinance language to define review of <br />83 fees on a periodic basis. <br />84 <br />85 Member Wozniak asked if staff had any concerns with sump pumps draining onto <br />86 adjacent properties. <br />87 <br />88 Mr. Culver responded that staff had discussed this with the City Attorney several <br />89 times, with their advice being that this was a grey area with property rights, and <br />90 more of a civil issue between property owners if and when it occurred. Under <br />91 current code requirements, Mr. Culver advised that drainage and utility easements <br />92 were required for most properties, allowing the City some control over that <br />93 drainage. However, Mr. Culver noted his surprise in reviewing plots, the number <br />94 of Roseville properties never having been platted and under Metes and Bounds <br />95 legal descriptions, making it much more difficult for the City to manage and <br />96 govern those types of situations. Mr. Culver clarified that a property owner had a <br />97 right to drain water awa*;eir hom o a street or stormwater system in <br />98 some fashion; but it becsue of neighbor rights versus homeowners' <br />99 rights in some cases. <br />100 <br />101 Mr. Schwartz concurred, noting that a homeowner could not knowingly harm <br />102 their neighbor. <br />103 P44 VL <br />104 Mr. Culver concurred; however, he noted that if and when a neighboring property <br />105 may be in the low spot, it often was up to the courts to determine those issues. <br />106**%�:% <br />107 7nspections <br />2.11 C <br />108 jerdingen noted that the revised language now clarified sump pump <br />109 could be done by a State licensed plumber, and questioned how the <br />110 City documented that. <br />111 <br />112 Staff responded that the register of licensed plumbers allowed staff to ensure they <br />113 were licensed and insured, and other qualifications, to protect its citizens. <br />114 <br />115 MOTION <br />116 Member Feliceved, Member Gjerdingen seconded, recommending to the City <br />117 Council revisions and updates to Roseville City Code, Chapter 802, Sewer Use <br />118 and Regulations (Attachment A), as presented in the staff report dated February <br />119 24, 2015. <br />120 <br />121 Ayes: 7 <br />122 Nays:0 <br />123 Motion carried. <br />124 6.
