    Public comment on flooding and development

    Jon Moody In your opinion. What is a countywide stormwater management plan? Our land development code contains stormwater regulations which do regulate up to the one hundred year flood. Our land development code. and the conditions of approval of all developments in this county. require permits from the Water Management District, whose regulations in sixty two three thirty also require management and storage of surface water, stormwater, up to and including the 100-year flood, and including mitigation of impacts to flood plains. So there are regulations in place. The Florida Florida was one of the very first states in the United States to adopt a comprehensive set of stormwater regulations. We have some of the most stringent stormwater regulations of any state in the country. Not saying we have the most, but it's one of the most. So I'm curious what is it that you have in mind for a plan? There are regulations that do control to make sure that development does control stormwater runoff. So I'm curious what things do you think need to be added to those regulations?

    Jon Moody then I put in a swimming pool and a big concrete deck. around there. I didn't have sidewalks around the side of my house and now I paved the side of my house. I go into neighborhoods like Gulf Harbors. and people have pavers. from their house all the way out to their neighbor's property line and the next neighbors put papers in all the way on their side of the house. All this stuff contributes to stormwater runoff too. So it's something that we all have to be aware of. Every every time each of us creates an impervious surface, we're adding to that problem. I'm not telling you that development doesn't contribute stormwater runoff, but we all do. It's just like we all generate trash and we all generate wastewater. So everybody needs to keep that in mind too when we want things of convenience around our own homes. But I'll be looking forward to the discussion on the MPUD that's on the agenda. I had planned on pulling that and I have questions about the stormwater too, so I'm sure we'll have a nice discussion. Thank

    Jon Moody trying to get permits and approvals for these things are not something that's simple. It takes millions and millions of dollars and sometimes decades to try to do. Um so I just they're not there are not any simple, easy answers. Are there things that we can do To try to reduce stormwater runoff? Sure. Maybe we can require less impervious surface and more green space, but you know, we all create to stormwater runoff too. How many of your neighbors? Move into a subdivision and they've got a sixty foot wide lot and we're in here debating the width of lots all the time. And they've got A two-car garage. And then they've got two high school students with cars, now all of a sudden I need to widen my driveway and I concrete my driveway. Or when I moved into that subdivision I didn't have a swimming pool and

    Jon Moody I understand the concern that we're all We're all Very sympathetic. to the flooding that resulted from the back to back hurricanes. But To my question. What what type of plan is it that you envision or would like to see? The one thing I I practiced stormwater for a living. Okay, and we follow those regulations and I've been doing this for 30 years. what level is enough protection. Right now, depending whether you're in an open drainage or basin or a closed drainage basin, The level of stormwater protection is a 25-year, 24-hour storm, or a 100-year 24-hour storm, or If you're familiar with the Florida Department of Transportation, if you're draining into one of their facilities, you're required to look at 48 different storm events all the way from the two-year, one-hour storm to the one hundred-year, ten-day storm.
