2 CITY OF SIGNAL HILL 2175 Cherry Avenue Signal Hill, CA June 4, 2013 AGENDA ITEM TO: FROM: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL STEVE MYRTER, P.E. DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING - INTRODUCTION OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SIGNAL HILL MUNICIPAL CODE TITLE 12 BY ADDING TO CHAPTER 12.16: LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT ORDINANCE Summary: Storm water and dry-weather urban runoff from the City of Signal Hill are subject to Waste Discharge Requirements issued by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). The current Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit recently adopted by the RWQCB requires changes to Chapter of the Signal Hill Municipal Code including incorporation of low impact development strategies to meet the more stringent permit requirements Recommendation: Open the public hearing to receive testimony and continue the public hearing to June 18, Fiscal Impact: No fiscal impact from the adoption of this ordinance is anticipated.
3 PH Intro of LID Ordinance June 4, 2013 Page 2 Background: SEPARATE STORM SEWER SYSTEM (MS4) PERMIT Storm water and dry-weather urban runoff from the City of Signal Hill are subject to Waste Discharge Requirements issued by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). These requirements include numerical effluent limits for pollutants that have been established by Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) and the Regional Board s Basin Plan. The Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit that was approved by the Los Angeles Regional Quality Control Board (RWQCB) on November 8, 2012, requires changes to Chapter of the Signal Hill Municipal Code. These changes, in general, expand the number and types of new and redevelopment projects that will now be required to install storm water runoff treatment systems. In addition, the numerical effluent limits are not likely to be achievable without the installation of storm water treatment systems that will cumulatively receive drainage from a large portion of the City. The addition to Chapter of the Signal Hill Municipal Code establishes requirements and standards for the installation of small scale treatment systems on individual parcels as these parcels submit plans and obtain permits for 500 square feet or more of new or remodeled impervious surfaces. LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT OVERVIEW Low Impact Development is a strategy for improving the quality of runoff by requiring that development projects direct runoff to treatment systems consisting of vegetation and soil. Since 2007, the City has been requiring Low Impact Development for high priority projects such as parking lots that are over 5,000 square feet and housing developments that have 10 or more dwelling units. The new NPDES (MS4) permit increased the number and type of high priority projects. For example, under the old permit, industrial and commercial projects disturbing one acre or more of soil would have to install storm water runoff treatment systems. The new MS4 permit lowers this threshold to 10,000 square feet. That leaves many small scale projects without treatment. Moreover, the establishment and enforceability of Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs), a regulatory numerical effluent discharge measurement for targeted stormwater pollutants including metals, bacteria, and nutrients to name a few, necessitates the call to increase the number of treatment system alternatives. These treatment systems, depending upon design, can reduce pollutant levels by as much as 50 to 90 percent from their associated draining area. The installation of these treatment systems can be low-cost and generally require low-maintenance, often being incorporated into the parcels landscape design. Analysis: An increased number of development projects will now be required to submit plans and obtain approval for the proposed low impact development measures being incorporated
4 PH Intro of LID Ordinance June 4, 2013 Page 3 prior to permit issuance. The review process for high priority projects that was in effect under the old permit is not anticipated to change significantly. The Low Impact Development (for small sites) Technical Guidance Manual was presented to the Sustainability Committee at the June 26, 2012 meeting for consideration and comment. At this meeting, comments regarding cost/benefit, vector control, and enforcement were made and revisions have been incorporated into the guidance manual. A copy of the completed Low Impact Development for small sites Technical Guidance Manual to be used by the property owner and/or developer is attached as Attachment A. The goals of Low Impact Development include: (1) reducing the amounts of pollutants in storm water and urban runoff, (2) development of specifications for low cost treatment systems that are easy for the property owner to install, and (3) encouraging property owners to select treatment systems that are easy to maintain thus minimizing the need for City enforcement. Specific elements include: Projects under 500 square feet will be exempted from this program. Residential development for 1-4 units will be able to put City specifications on plans and provide simple calculations showing the treatment surface area is 4 percent of the new impervious area. Residential development involving 5 or more dwelling units and those for commercial or industrial development are more likely to have professional engineers and architects involved in the project and will be subject to slightly more complex documentation showing that the treatment system can accommodate runoff for the first ¾ inch of rainfall. Where redevelopment involves more than 50 percent of the site, runoff from the entire site would have to be treated. Readily approvable treatment systems such as: o Flow-through planters o Vegetative (concave) swales with underdrains o Rain Gardens (concave rock and plant areas) o Hollywood or other pervious style driveways o Bottomless trench drains across driveways Other permitted treatment systems to be approved by the City. Projects subject to New Development and Redevelopment provisions of the MS4 permit (large projects) will be separately evaluated in accordance with the LID criteria of the MS4 permit.
5 PH Intro of LID Ordinance June 4, 2013 Page 4 Enforcement to ensure the ongoing effectiveness of these treatment systems can be: 1. No enforcement, and reliance on the honor system for property owners to maintain these systems, recognizing a portion of property owners will not actively maintain the systems, or would even alter or remove some of the systems, or 2. A limited enforcement program that could require: a. Small signs or markers at the time of installation stating, This landscape feature is part of a storm water treatment system and alterations are not permitted without prior City authorization, or b. Letters sent out annually reminding owners to properly maintain these systems, 3. Inspections made by City representatives annually or every 2 years at the 5 unit or more residential facilities and industrial/commercial sites (Inspections at the 1-4 unit residential sites are regarded as problematic due to property rights issues and are not likely to be cost effective.) Instead of the Low Impact Development program requiring treatment systems at the per-parcel level as described above, the City does have the alternative of installing a few very large regional treatment systems. This will require locating available City or public agency owned sites, or the purchase of land, near a major storm drain to install large treatment systems. The City would be responsible for ongoing maintenance. The costs associated with this are speculative at this point and therefore are not included herein but are anticipated to be considerably higher than the per-parcel approach. Approved: Kenneth C.

8 Section 1 Introduction 1.1 WHAT IS LID? LID Small Site Technical Guidance Manual LID stands for: Low Impact Development, it is a stormwater management strategy that emphasizes conservation and the use of existing natural site features integrated with distributed, small-scale stormwater controls to more closely mimic natural hydrologic patterns in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. 1.2 WHY IS LID BEING REQUIRED? The urbanization of Southern California has disrupted the natural flow of stormwater runoff. Rain falling on roofs now flows into metal or plastic downspouts, then to concrete curbs and gutters along asphalt roads, then to concrete storm drains, then to concrete river channels, and then finally into estuaries and the Pacific Ocean. You can see the problem; rainwater no longer comes into contact with dirt and vegetation. Any pollutants (heavy metals, bacteria, nutrients, pesticides) that would have previously been naturally degraded, are now flowing straight out to environmentally sensitive areas. LID is a new design strategy that corrects this problem. There are many highly technical manuals for designing LID systems, some of which are listed in Section 4 herein. The purpose of this guidance manual is to simplify your design. Typical LID systems include: Flow-Through Planter Boxes Vegetative Swales Rain Gardens Hollywood Driveways Bottomless Trenches In addition to the LID systems listed above, there are many other acceptable systems such as capture and re-use (cisterns/ rain barrels), green roofs, pervious pavement/pavers, turf block, etc. However, the design, installation, and subsequent operation and maintenance of these systems can be complex and should be carefully evaluated prior to being proposed. When using these other systems, a published design standard shall be followed. City of Signal Hill Page 3 of 19 June 2013
9 1.3 PROJECT APPLICABLILITY Step 1: Categories. LID Small Site Technical Guidance Manual There are four LID categories. The first step in LID design is to determine which category the project fits into. Category 1. Category 2. Category 3. Category 4. The project is subject to the provision of the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System permit (MS4) issued by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board. These projects typically include (but are not limited to): new industrial parks 10,000 square feet or more; new commercial malls 10,000 square feet or more; Retail gasoline outlets 5,000 square feet or more; new restaurants 5,000 square feet or more; new parking lots 5,000 square feet or more; or the creation or addition or replacement of 5,000 square feet or more of impervious surfaces of existing projects meeting the Regional Board s applicability criteria. The project is beyond the scope of this manual and is subject to the requirements as outlined in the MS4 Permit. The project will disturb less than 500 square feet of soil The project is exempt from LID requirements. The project is residential, will involve 4 or less dwelling units and will disturb more than 500 square feet of soil The project falls under the Residential LID Category. The project will involve 5 or more dwelling units or is at a commercial or industrial site. It will disturb more than 500 square feet of soil The project falls under the Commercial/Industrial LID Category. Step 2: LID Design Requirements. For Residential LID Projects (Category 3 above) A Residential LID Project must incorporate one or more LID system(s) in the project design. The system(s) must be shown on the plans submitted to the City. Include the following statement: As the engineer/architect of record for this project, I have designed the LID system in accordance with the design criteria of the City of Signal Hill s LID Guidance Manual. The project engineer/architect must make sure the safety and soil stability of the LID system is carefully evaluated prior to its inclusion in the design. Language describing maintenance activities and indicating the responsible party for such activities (including signature) must be located on the document(s) submitted to the City. The entire project area must drain to the LID system(s). If water is flowing to the LID system from areas outside the project area, the LID system must be designed accordingly to treat all tributary areas. In instances where a project cannot treat the runoff from the development area, an equivalent area may be treated as an alternative. City of Signal Hill Page 4 of 19 June 2013
10 LID Small Site Technical Guidance Manual Calculations must be included on the plans showing the LID system is adequately sized. For Residential LID Projects, the BMP(s) size must be 4% of the tributary area. City of Signal Hill Page 5 of 19 June 2013
11 LID Small Site Technical Guidance Manual For Commercial/Industrial LID Projects (Category 4 above) A Commercial/Industrial LID Project must incorporate one or more LID system(s) in the project design. The system(s) must be shown on the plans submitted to the City. Include the following statement: As the engineer/architect of record for this project, I have designed the LID system in accordance with the design criteria of the City of Signal Hill s LID Guidance Manual. The project engineer/architect must make sure the safety and soil stability of the LID system is carefully evaluated prior to its inclusion in the design. Language describing maintenance activities and indicating the responsible party for such activities (including signature) must be located on the document(s) submitted to the City. The entire project area must drain to the LID system(s). If water is flowing to the LID system from areas outside the project area, the LID system must be designed accordingly to treat all tributary areas. In instances where a project cannot treat the runoff from the development area, an equivalent area may be treated as an alternative. Calculations must be included on the plans showing the LID system is adequately sized. A calculation template is shown on the following specification pages. For Commercial/Industrial LID Projects, the BMP(s) must be sized to treat the entire design capture volume (DCV). Step 3: Plan development and submittal. The LID system(s) design and location must be shown on the plans and submitted to the City. The Standard Plans are available (yet not required) for guidance. 1.3 LID Exemptions Exemptions from LID Requirements. LID requirements do not apply to any of the following: 1. A Development that only creates, adds or replaces less than 500 square feet of impervious area; 2. A Development involving only emergency construction activity required to immediately protect public health and safety; 3. Infrastructure projects within the public right-of-way; 4. A Development or Redevelopment involving only activity related to gas, water, cable, or electricity services on private property; 5. A Development involving only resurfacing and/or re-striping of permitted parking lots, where the original line and grade, hydraulic capacity, and original purpose of the facility is maintained; 6. A project involving only exterior movie or television production sets, or facades on an existing developed site; 7. A project not requiring a City building, grading, demolition or other permit for construction activity. City of Signal Hill Page 6 of 19 June 2013
12 LID Small Site Technical Guidance Manual Section 2 Commonly Asked Questions 1. I am adding a second story to my house. The existing footprint will remain unchanged, does LID apply? No, LID is required only where 500 square feet of soil is being disturbed. 2. I will be adding a new 500 square foot room that will replace some of my backyard. Does LID apply? Yes, you ve crossed the 500 square foot threshold. 3. I will be building a new addition that will be over 500 square feet, but I can t fit an LID system into the new addition. Can I create an LID system for an equivalent area of the existing building? Yes, you can create an LID system for an equivalent area of the existing building. 4. I own a business. It is concrete and asphalt all around. Will LID be required if infeasible? A waiver for technical infeasibility may be issued by the Director; however in this situation it is unlikely to be granted. Generally there is always a way to implement LID requirements. 5. How big do I have to design the LID systems? On the following pages are design criteria. Generally you have to make the systems big enough to treat runoff from a ¾ inch storm. 6. I am removing a 500 square foot concrete pad that is in need of repair and replacing it with an identical new concrete pad. Does LID apply? If the construction would not result in soil disturbance, this would be considered routine maintenance. However, if the construction did result in soil disturbance an LID system would be required. 7. I am installing new interior electrical and new plumbing and will have more than 500 square feet of disturbed soil. When the project is finished, the trenches will be patched to match the existing surrounding surfaces. The existing building will be unchanged. Will LID apply? No, utility projects are exempt from LID requirements. See Section 1.4 of this document. 8. My project does not require any permits from the City, does LID apply? No, only projects requiring city permits need to comply with LID. 9. If at some time in the future I want to change the design of the LID system, can I? Only with Planning Department approval.
