[Ord. No. 95-12 §8.1, 3-7-1995]
The performance standards and design criteria set forth herein
establish minimum requirements which must be implemented with good
engineering practice and workmanship. Use of the requirements contained
herein shall not constitute a representation, guarantee, or warranty
of any kind by the City or its officers and employees, of the adequacy
or safety of any stormwater management structure or use of land. Nor
shall the approval of a Stormwater Management Plan and the issuance
of a drainage permit imply that land uses permitted will be free from
damages caused by stormwater runoff. The degree of protection required
by these regulations is considered reasonable for regulatory purposes
and is based on historical records, engineering and scientific methods
of study. Larger storms may occur or stormwater runoff heights may
be increased by man-made or natural causes. These regulations therefore
shall not create liability on the part of the City or any Officer
with respect to any legislative or administrative decision lawfully
made hereunder.
