The city shall not approve any plat which does not make adequate provision 972 for stormwater or floodwater runoff. Surface water drainage patterns shall be shown for each lot and 973 block. The stormwater drainage system shall be separate and independent of any sanitary sewer 974 system. Storm sewers, where required, shall be designed by the method as approved by the city, and a 975 copy of design computations shall be submitted along with plans. Inlets shall be provided so that 976 surface water is not carried across or around any intersection, nor for a distance of more than 600 feet 977 in the gutter in urban areas. When calculations indicate that curb capacities are exceeded at a point, no 978 further allowance shall be made for flow beyond that point; and basins shall be used to intercept flow 979 at that point. 980 (b) Nature of stormwater facilities. 981 (1) Location. The subdivision shall be required by the city to carry away by pipe or open ditch any 982 spring or surface water that may exist either previously to or as a result of the plat. Such drainage 983 facilities shall be located in the road right-of-way where feasible, or in perpetual unobstructed 984 easements of appropriate width, and shall be constructed in accordance with the city's 985 construction standards and specifications. 986 (2) Accessibility to public storm sewers. 987 a.

If a connection to a public storm sewer will be provided eventually, as determined by the 991 city, the subdivider shall make arrangements for future stormwater disposal by a public 992 utility system at the time the subdivision receives final approval.
