SECTION 1.6.6.7 Stormwater Management (PPSI 2014)

We are concerned with the potential impact of the quality and quantity of runoff in the downstream watercourse due to future development on this site. In addition, that stormwater quality and stormwater quantity are addressed up to and including the 1:100 year storm event and be in accordance with the guidance provided by the Stormwater Management Planning and Guidance Manual, prepared by the Ministry of the Environment (MOE, March 2003) and any other Municipal requirements (e.g., Windsor-Essex Region Stormwater Management Standards Manual).

We therefore request inclusion of the following conditions in the Development Agreement:

  1. That the developer undertakes an engineering analysis to identify stormwater quality and quantity measures as necessary to control any increases inflows in downstream watercourses, up to and including the 1:100 year design storm, to the satisfaction of the Municipality and the Essex Region Conservation Authority.

  2. That the developer installs stormwater management measures identiFIed above, as part of the development of the site, to the satisfaction of the Municipality and the Essex Region Conservation Authority.

  3. That the developer obtains the necessary permit or clearance from the Essex Region Conservation Authority prior to undertaking site alterations and/or construction activities.
