Executive Summary

An updated analysis of the 1990 Master Plan of Drainage has been performed, and the updated Plan is presented to the City Council for its consideration. Recommended adoption will facilitate future storm drainage infrastructure and will also support the basis of the recently adopted Public Facilities Fees taking effect March 3, 2025.

 

Discussion

In 1990, the City completed a Master Plan of Drainage, providing a comprehensive analysis of the storm drain conveyance system. This plan identified necessary future drainage facilities to support the City's growth and has served as the guiding document for storm infrastructure since its adoption. Over the past 35 years, both City and private development projects have implemented improvements outlined in the Master Plan.

 

The Master Plan also formed the basis for the City's Public Facilities Fees (PFF) for Drainage. It identified capital improvements and their costs, which were used to determine impact fees collected from new developments to fund necessary drainage facilities.

 

In 2019, the City conducted another comprehensive analysis of the drainage system, assessing existing infrastructure, key concerns, and future development areas. This resulted in a new Drainage Master Plan ("Plan"), which updated the City's drainage system needs. The Plan also informed updates to the PFF, which were approved by the City Council in late 2024.

 

At this time, staff recommends adoption of the updated Plan, officially replacing the 1990 Master Plan of Drainage. Adoption of the Plan will facilitate future development and will also provide a direct link between necessary infrastructure and the updated PFF.
