Several speakers Moody: a stormwater. I have never seen a stormwater manual in this county.
Starkey So we're trying to do and I gave you an example right here on Little Road of a stormwater pond. There's a couple stormwater ponds, maybe three, that are surrounded by ligh books that we're planting. You we most of these developments with the stormwater ponds, they don't put any trees on the edges when they could. It's a great place to put shade trees.
Several speakers Starkey: Well Mariano: because they got wet. Starkey: Okay, but how long have they stood there? Mariano: I don't know, one good stormwater.
Several speakers Moody: And this is exactly why we should get rid of people doing stormwater in the county because it takes a certain level of expertise construct which is what the state agency has.
Several speakers Unidentified A: It will be subject to Swift MUT Stormwater approvals and it will be subject to the DOT stormwater approvals. Yeah.
Mariano in favor say aye. Aye. Thank you. I'd like to say that uh you know this morning on on the radio talking about things we're gonna talk about, I was very proud to say the recognition public works was gonna get today. Didn't know we had this many people coming forward, but I'm glad you're all here to hear it. Um You know, yesterday we had a meeting with a stormwater project, the septic to sewer project, combining together with Sea Pines. We had experts from the stormwater side, we had people from the septic to sewer side working together to try to bring the project, which so many things Need to happen together. And Brantford, when you brought it up years ago, we don't want to do a road project unless we're gonna look at the stormwater to go with it. Uh so the between the stormwater sidewalk projects coordinate everything. I think the way we're running things now is absolutely phenomenal. And what you guys do out there day in and day out, you've made my life so much easier from 2004 when we had those four hurricanes, all the storms we've had in the years between. I used to have a loop that would take me like eight hours to go from the top of the county down
Starkey following up on that and we're at we're past twelve, so sorry to ask this question. Um On the d there are stormwater ponds that never hold any water. Are are they designed that way? Uh is it a dry stormwater pond? And one comes to mind is next to Chasco Elementary because when I was on the school board we were letting Um little we're letting teams play football in that pond because there's never ever any water in it. And it's high there, right? That's sand underneath. Um, are those designed to never hold water? And stonewater pond versus the detention versus retention.
Several speakers New Port Richey: a permitted facility that we depend on for wet weather uh flows.
Moody That's charged with you know, managing stormwater. You've got to get that permit. For whatever reason, our county has not been able to update its rules or keep a staff that's actually capable of doing the analysis required to make sure those rules are complied with, why don't we just defer that to the state and save our local taxpayers the money and time? There's a duplication of services that's unnecessary and if your local rule is going to be If you look at our s the stormwater rules and our land development code says our stormwater rules are the rules in effect at Swift Mud on what whatever December twenty eleven. Well. Why would then why would do we need to have rules? We we're using their rules and they do it. Why do we need to have 'em? That doesn't make any sense.
What I think it's just the stormwater question and that the stormwater is actually going to cobblestone um with another. You'll see it. It's a pond that's on the south side on the aerial. I think they've already it's already under construction.
Several speakers Unidentified A: mean I think there's it's a whole separate issue, but there is a lot of over duplicate review when it comes to stormwater. Water management district enforces the D P rules.
Mariano Because over the years stormwater keeps on going to those into the canals. It affects water quality and make that part of it so it's just not storm related, we've got to tie back to that.
