The Basin Plans document the comprehensive basin planning process and results, and provide guidance for the management of stormwater throughout the study area. These plans describe a "multiple-objective" approach (i.e., incorporating water quality, stormwater-related natural resources and flood control) to stormwater management, and are to be used by City staff for background/contextual information, for development of the City's biennial CIP, for contextual support for proposed development standards, and for evaluating technical information about the stormwater system. However, the Basin Plans will not be used in a manner that regulates conduct or activities of the public. D. The new' Basin Plans: Identify the major drainage basins and major subbasin delineations: Describe the study area characteristics (existing/build-out land use, impervious surface cover, slopes, topography, soil types, drainage features, etc.): Describe the flood control, water quality and stormwater-related natural resource problems and opportunities in each major basin: Administrative Order - 1 C \TEMP\03coreybas~n wpd(04/03/03)
