A. As used in this chapter, “interstate truck” shall mean a combination of vehicles as described in Section 35401.5 of the Vehicle Code and not exceeding the lengths set forth therein, and “terminal” shall have the meaning specified in Section 35401.5 of the Vehicle Code.

B. Any interested person desiring an access route to an interstate truck terminal facility from the federally designated highway system shall submit to the Director an application, on a form as provided by the Director, together with such information as may be required by the Director and appropriate fees.

C. The Director will cause an investigation to be made to ascertain whether or not the proposed terminal facility meets the requirements for an interstate truck terminal. Upon his approval of that designation, he will then determine the capability of the route requested and alternate routes, whether requested or not. Determination of route capability will include, without limitation, a review of adequate turning radius and lane widths of ramps, intersections and highways and general traffic conditions such as sight distance, speed and traffic volumes. No access off a federally designated highway system will be approved without the approval of the State of California Department of Transportation.

D. Should the requested route pass through the City of Rancho Cordova to a terminal located in another jurisdiction, the applicant shall submit proof of compliance with that jurisdiction’s application process. Coordination of the approval of the route through the City will be the responsibility of the entity which controls the terminal’s land use.

B. Upon the approval of the terminal designation and route by the City, the applicant shall deposit with the City sufficient funds as estimated by the Director to pay for the purchase and installation of terminal trailblazer signs.

Trailblazer signs shall be required at every decision point in the City on the route to the terminal and at intermediate points not closer than one-half mile apart as determined by the Director. Upon completion of the installation of the signs, the actual cost shall be computed and any difference between the actual and the estimated cost shall be billed or refunded to the applicant, whichever the case may be. Any excess due to the City shall be due and payable 30 days after billing and thereafter shall bear interest at the maximum rate permitted by law. No interstate truck terminal or access route may be used for such purpose until such signs as may be required are in place. [Ord. 21- 2003 §§ 2, 4; Ord. 20-2003 §§ 2, 4; SCC 620 § 1, 1985].

10.64.010 Findings.

The City Council of the City of Rancho Cordova hereby finds and determines that:

A. The City of Rancho Cordova is projected to experience a significant increase in employment and population growth over the next 20 years, which will result in a projected increase of existing peak hour traffic volumes.

B. Home-to-work employee commuting generates a significant level of vehicle trips, thereby contributing to traffic congestion, air pollution, and energy consumption problems.

C. The conventional response to relieving traffic congestion by expanding the capacity of the roadway system is no longer appropriate as the sole solution due to increasing construction and maintenance costs and decreasing revenues for such expenditures.

D. Ridesharing, transit, and bicycle usage among employees for home-to-work trips are simple and inexpensive alternative means of reducing peak-hour, single-occupant motor vehicle trips. A reduction in such trips can be expected to result in a reduction in traffic congestion, air pollution, and energy consumption impacts related to employment in the City.

E. While employers have traditionally provided parking facilities to accommodate employee vehicle trips, such employers should also be required to provide programs and incentives to encourage and accommodate ridesharing, transit, bicycle and pedestrian commuting by employees. [Ord. 21-2003 §§ 2, 4; Ord. 20-2003 §§ 2, 4; SCC 567 § 1, 1983].

10.64.020 Purpose.

The purpose of this chapter is to establish requirements and procedures whereby major employers located in C ity of Rancho Cordova will develop and implement programs designed to reduce the number of employee vehicle commute trips as part of a broad City of Rancho Cordova program to achieve the following objectives:

A. Reduce peak-hour traffic circulation and congestion by reducing the number of single-occupant motor vehicle trips associated with home-to-work commuting.

C. Reduce future air pollution concentrations and strive towards meeting federal ambient air pollution standards by reducing the number of single-occupant motor vehicle trips associated with home-to-work commuting.

D. Reduce the consumption of energy for transportation uses and thereby contribute to the national policy to increase energy self-sufficiency. [Ord. 38-2007 § 1 (Exh. 1(A)); Ord. 21-2003 §§ 2, 4; Ord. 20-2003 §§ 2, 4; SCC 567 § 1, 1983].

The purpose of this chapter is to establish a mechanism for funding the operation and maintenance of the City storm drainage system in order that storm and surface waters may be properly drained and controlled so that the health, safety and welfare of the city and its inhabitants may be safeguarded and protected. [Ord. 21-2003 §§ 2, 4; Ord. 20-2003 §§ 2, 4; SCC 0985 § 1, 1995].

15.10.020 Findings.

The City Council hereby finds as follows:

ITEM 11.3.

ATTACHMENT 2
Exhibit A to the Ordinance

A. The City maintains a system of storm and surface water management facilities within the City, including but not limited to inlets, conduits, manholes, channels, ditches, drainage easements, retention and detention basins, infiltration facilities, overland release corridors, pump stations, and other components as well as natural waterways.

B. Those elements of the City’s storm and surface water management system that provide for the collection, storage, treatment, and conveyance of storm drainage are of benefit and provide services to all developed property within the City.

C. The cost of operating and maintaining the storm drainage management system, including necessary repairs, should, to the extent practicable, be allocated in relationship to the benefits enjoyed and services received therefrom.

D. Erosion and the discharge of nutrients, metals, oil, grease, and other substances into and through the storm drainage system results in a degradation in water quality if not properly managed.

E. The public health, safety and welfare are adversely affected by poor water quality and flooding resulting from inadequate storm drainage management practices.

F. The storm drainage management practices necessary to protect water quality are largely established by federal and state statutes, regulations and permitting requirements.

G. Real property either uses or benefits from the presence and operation of the storm drainage management system.

H. The use of the storm drainage system is dependent on factors that influence runoff, including land use and impervious area.

I. The City has the authority under Section 5471 of
the Health and Safety Code to prescribe,
revise and collect fees, tolls, rates, rentals and other charges for facilities and services furnished by it in connection with its storm drainage system.

J. T
he Legislature, through the adoption of Section 5471 of the Health and Safety Code, has specifically authorized the City to provide storm drainage services as a utility function for which service charges may be levied.

K. S torm drainage services are currently provided by the C ity and funded through a combination of property tax revenue and benefit assessments.

ITEM 11.3.

ATTACHMENT 2
Exhibit A to the Ordinance

L. Benefit assessments are an undesirable revenue mechanism because of the significant lag- time between the time that the assessments are approved and the time that they are received as part of the real property tax collection and allocation process. This lag-time creates the need to include a component in the assessment to provide a reserve for dry period financing purposes.

M. A fee to fund storm drainage services offers a reliable and consistent source of revenue that is locally controlled and independent of the vagaries of the state of California’s budget process. [Ord. 212003 §§ 2, 4; Ord. 20-2003 §§ 2, 4; SCC 0985 § 1, 1995].

The Public Works Director shall notify the owner of record if the billing is changed to comply with such a request and the owner of record shall remain liable for any delinquent fees.

D. The opening bills shall be based on current parcel numbers, square footage and use codes on record in the county assessor’s office, unless the Public Works Director determines that the actual use of the parcel is different than the use reflected in the use codes in which case the billing shall be based on the actual use of the parcel.

E. Any adjustment of charges may be initiated by either the Public Works Director or by the owner of a parcel subject to the storm drainage service fee. If the Public Works Director denies any adjustment proposed by an owner or an owner objects to an adjustment proposed by the Public Works Director, any adjustment shall be made pursuant to the procedure set forth in RCMC

15.10.100. Any debit adjustments shall be added to the charge in the succeeding billing period.

3 Article I. General Provisions

15.12.010 Findings.

A. The Federal Clean Water Act provides for the regulation and reduction of pollutants discharged into the waters of the United States by extending National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements to stormwater and urban runoff discharges into the City’s municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4).

B. The State Water Resources Control Board (“State Water Board”) is the state water pollution control agency for all purposes of the Federal Clean Water Act pursuant to Section 13160 of the California Water Code. The State Water Board is authorized by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to administer the NPDES program within the state. The Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act (Water Code section 13000 et seq.) provides authority for the State NPDES program, including provisions to issue NPDES permits and Waste Discharge Requirements (WDR’s) to regulate discharges of stormwater to the waters of the state.

C. Stormwater flows from individual properties to the City’s MS4 and then ultimately to the Waters of the United States.

D. The City of Rancho Cordova, the County of Sacramento and the cities of Citrus Heights, Elk Grove, Folsom, Galt, and Sacramento are subject to the waste discharge requirements of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit And Waste Discharge Requirements General Permit For Discharges From Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (Order R5-2016-0040, NPDES No. CA0085324) (Municipal Stormwater Permit), under which the City and Sacramento County are co-permittees. As co-permittee with Sacramento County, the City is required to possess the necessary legal authority, and to implement appropriate procedures, to regulate the entry of pollutants and non-stormwater discharges into the City’s MS4.

E. The City’s Municipal Stormwater Permit requires the City effectively prohibit non-stormwater discharges into the MS4 except as otherwise allowed by the permit or permitted by federal law. The Municipal Stormwater Permit and this chapter require regular compliance inspections and enforcement at certain commercial and industrial facilities, as defined by the permit.

F. The City Council finds in this regard that the provisions of this chapter are necessary to provide the City with the legal authority necessary to implement and otherwise comply with the requirements of its Municipal Stormwater Permit and to protect the waters of the state for the benefit of its people and the environment. [Ord. 41-2004 § 2].

ITEM 11.3.

ATTACHMENT 2
Exhibit A to the Ordinance

4 15.12.020 P urpose and intent.

A. This chapter is adopted pursuant to Article XI, Section 7 of the California Constitution, which authorizes the City to exercise its police power to protect and promote the public health, safety, and general welfare. While stormwater runoff is one step in the natural cycle of water, human activities, including, but not limited to, agriculture, construction, and the operation of an urban infrastructure, may result in undesirable discharges of pollutants and certain sediments. Such discharges may accumulate in local drainage channels and waterways may eventually be deposited in the waters of the United States. The purpose of this chapter is to protect and enhance the water quality of watercourses, water bodies and wetlands within the City in a manner consistent with the Federal Clean Water Act, the Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act, and Municipal Discharge Permit No.CAS0085324, Order R5-2016-0040, together with all subsequent amendments and renewals, by controlling the contribution of urban pollutants to stormwater runoff which enters the City’s stormwater conveyance system.

B.

It is the intent of the City Council in adopting this chapter to provide the City with the legal authority to accomplish the following goals:

1. To benefit the people and environment of the City of Rancho Cordova by protecting water quality in Waters of the United States and Waters of the State;

2. To reduce the discharge of pollutants in stormwater to the maximum extent practicable;

3. To effectively prohibit non-stormwater discharges into the City’s stormwater conveyance system;

4. To comply with the requirements of the Federal Clean Water Act, the Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act and NPDES Municipal Stormwater Discharge Permit No.CAS0085324, and Order R5-2016- 0040, together with all subsequent amendments and renewals as they apply to the discharge of pollutants into and from the City’s MS4;

5. To fully implement the City’s comprehensive annual Work Plans as approved by the Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Water Board);

6. To protect the physical integrity and function of the City’s MS4 from the effects of pollutants and materials other than stormwater;

7. To prevent the contamination of groundwater as a result of urban stormwater runoff; ITEM 11.3.

ATTACHMENT 2
Exhibit A to the Ordinance

5 8. To protect the health and safety of maintenance personnel and the public who may be exposed to pollutants in the city’s MS4;

9. To provide for the recovery of regulatory costs incurred by the City in the implementation of its comprehensive Stormwater Quality Improvement Program, including, but not limited to, enforcement activities, compliance assistance, inspections, investigations, sampling, and monitoring; and

10. To establish appropriate enforcement procedures and penalties for violations of the provisions of this chapter. [Ord. 41-2004 § 2].

15.12.030 Definitions.

Any term(s) defined in the Federal Clean Water Act, as amended, and/or defined in the regulations for the stormwater discharge permitting program issued by the Environmental Protection Agency, as amended, and which are not specifically defined in this chapter shall, when used in the chapter, have the same meaning as set forth in said act or regulation.
