§ 112-147. Stormwater management plan required for all developments.

(a)

No application for development will be approved unless it includes a stormwater management plan detailing in concept how runoff and associated water quality impacts resulting from the development will be controlled or managed. This plan must be certified by a professional engineer licensed in the state. Further, pursuant to the provisions contained in O.C.G.A. § 43-15-2, as amended, a surveyor registered in the state may prepare hydrologic studies and design stormwater drainage systems. Said plan must indicate whether stormwater will be managed on-site or off-site and if on-site, the general location and type of practice.

(b)

This final plan must be signed by a professional engineer licensed in the state, who will verify the design of all stormwater management practices.

(c)

The stormwater management plan shall be referred for comment to all other interested agencies, and any comments must be addressed in a final stormwater management plan. This final plan must be signed by a professional engineer licensed in the state, who will verify that the design of all stormwater management practices meet the requirements outlined in the submittal checklist found in the current LDM. No development permits shall be issued until a satisfactory final stormwater management plan, or a waiver thereof, shall have undergone a review and been approved by the community development director or his designee after determining that the plan or waiver is consistent with the requirements of this article.
