F.1. Ordinance Amending Section 5.02 – Definitions; Section 8.01.C – Introductions; Section 8.401 – Introduction; Section 8.402B – Storm Water Detention ; Section 8.405A – Detention in Wetlands; and Creating Section 8.401a – Findings and Purpose; Section 8.407 – Maintenance of Stormwater Facilities; Section 22.00 Fee-In-Lieu of On-Site Detention of the Subdivision and Development Control Regulation of the Village of Oswego to Provide Fee-In-Lieu of On-Site Runoff Detention.
Director Hughes addressed the Board regarding fee-in-lieu of on-site detentions. The Village adopted the Kendall County Stormwater Management Ordinance (KCSMO) as required in 2012. The KCSMO allows for fee-in-lieu of on-site detention. Fee-in-lieu is used where property is redeveloped and the original site did not provide detention. Rather than build a detention, a fee can be paid to build one somewhere else.
Board and staff discussion focused on developer to design a detention and setting a default; needing to have adequate downstream pipe; not flooding people downstream; stop gap to make sure not making it worse; open farmland would still need detention; needing to ask about future road improvements if project is next to a State or County road; provisions; talking about the issue; allowing developers to do regional detention and recaptures; downtown water; still need to filter the water; fees put into an account and only used for detentions. Ordinance will be brought back for vote at the next Board meeting. There was no further discussion.
