The purpose of this article is to control pollution and prevent polluted water discharge
into the municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4) and/or water bodies from residential,
business, and commercial establishments, and to preserve the natural flow of water
and waterways within the city. The provisions in this article are intended to provide
a natural environment, to control nonstormwater runoff to the MS4 at its source, to
minimize the adverse effects of water pollution and to preserve our drinking water
supplies. It is also the purpose of this article to prevent and eliminate the wrongful
discharge of wastewater and to prevent wash water discharges into the MS4. The resulting
discharges pollute stormwater flows in ditches, streams, waterways and thereby create
an unhealthy situation, degrade water quality, cause loss of aquatic life and pose
a threat to public health and safety.
