STORMWATER COALITION MEETING

Posted on by bccadmin

At the meeting you will learn that we are working to form a ‘SW Coalition’ of interested AA County citizens (hopefully to include attendees expertise in SW management) to meet with County and State officials and drive new legislation to tighten up on our SW regs that are sorely in need of amendments and/or rewrites. 

In many cases the law has so many loops in it that a developer may “meet specs” and install a failing SW system that we–the Broadneck Council of Communities (BCC)–will hear reports of a “failing system” and be told by the County that “it meets County and/or State specs”. The developer walks away from the project and the property owner/s have the responsibility to pay for the correction to a flawed system.

In the Broadneck, stormwater problems and liabilities are our top priority–along with traffic problems on Rte #50/301.

If you have concerns about stormwater (SW) management in your geography, please attend the meeting. This Meeting is the result of a collaboration between the BCC and Growth Action Network-(GAN). GAN has a Countywide membership so provides sponsorship for meetings that have interest outside of just the Broadneck. This meeting will provide the most current detail about the status of SW, facilities management as we know it and have dealt with it, in AA County.

Please join us at this meeting on Monday night for an excellent program.
