SECTION 28-27 STORM SEWERS

1. a.
   The subdivider shall provide a storm water sewer system adequate for the present needs of the subdivision. As a minimum, such systems shall be adequate for the most intense rainfall expected in a two-year period, and adequacy shall be computed according to the Rational Formula Method. Whenever a drainage channel is located within the subdivision the developer shall clear and so improve the channel that it will accommodate the future storm water flow of the drainage area. Approval of engineering specifications and drawings shall rest with the Commission upon recommendation by the City Engineer.
2. b.
   The Commission may require the subdivider to provide storm water sewers under the provision of this section that are larger than would be necessary to meet the present needs of the subdivision, provided, that the Board of Public Works and Safety shall enter into such contracts or make such provisions as are provided for by law and with the subdivider to compensate him for the cost of requirements in excess of the present needs of his subdivision. The Board of Public Works and Safety is further empowered to charge future subdivider’s, corporations, or persons as provided by law for future connections to the facilities required by this section in a proportionate amount of the extra cost of the facility, based upon the area then being subdivided or developed. Where the subdivision is located beyond the corporate limits, the Board of County Commissioners of Delaware County shall exercise the same authority as the Board of Public Works and Safety.
