Fiscal Note+
The proposed amendment of Section 37 requires various reductions in total suspended solids introduced into public waters. Funding for some of these efforts would be supported by the private sector. For those efforts supported by the public sector, funding for any actions undertaken to reduce suspended solids would have to be included in future year Engineering Division/Stormwater Utility capital and operating budgets. Other than those amounts identified in the 2005 Adopted Capital Improvement Program and the 2005 Adopted Operating Budget, the amount of such funding is not quantifiable at the present time. Appropriate amounts would be incorporated into future year capital and operating budgets as more information becomes available.
