Storm Water Master Plan

The stormwater system includes centralized drainage systems and independent community systems. Beginning with the adoption of the City’s 1992 General Plan, the City’s development and infrastructure planning efforts have become increasingly comprehensive. Based on the City’s growth management strategy, the City has adopted a number of Specific Plans and Master Plans to guide growth in specified areas. Recently installed storm drainage infrastructure throughout the City were integrated with the needs of individual communities as well as regional planning efforts for stormwater management.

The City’s 2030 General Plan update provides a summary of the Specific Plans and Master Plans for proposed development projects that are currently underway or that are proposed for the future. Based on the type of development (residential, industrial, commercial, etc.), the Plans propose appropriate methods of stormwater manage infrastructure (ponds, pump stations, or underground storage in pipes).
