Stormwater Drainage Connections – Amended Policy

Published on Wednesday, 26 June 2024 at 1:20:09 PM

The City of Vincent is seeking community feedback on proposed changes to its Stormwater Drainage Connections Policy.

The policy was adopted 22 September 1997 and was last reviewed in February 2013. 

It aims to ensure stormwater generated from commercial, industrial and residential properties is managed in a sustainable manner, particularly the City's stormwater drainage infrastructure.

Vincent has proposed updates to the policy to address requests from developers who want to connect into City-owned stormwater infrastructure.

The proposed amendment seeks to accommodate the capacity of current stormwater drainage infrastructure and the effects of climate change, in particular the increasing occurrence and intensity of storm events.

The overall policy is not addressing the entire stormwater drainage system needs within the City of Vincent.
