An Ordinance amending Section 16-1(c)(19) and Section 16-1(f)(70) of the Code of Ordinances of the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government, adopting and incorporating a maintenance manual for post-construction stormwater controls as an engineering manual for infrastructure in Lexington-Fayette County. [Council Office, Hall]

This ordinance amends the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government's Code of Ordinances to formally adopt and incorporate a Maintenance Manual for Post-Construction Stormwater Controls as an official engineering manual for infrastructure.

Key Changes:

• Section 16-1(c)(19) is amended to include the "maintenance manual for post-construction stormwater controls that outlines minimum maintenance requirements" within the definition of "Engineering manuals."
• Section 16-1(f)(70) is similarly amended to include this manual in the definition of "Engineering manuals," which are used for the design, review, construction, repair, and inspection of infrastructure.

This action standardizes the maintenance requirements for stormwater control systems after construction, ensuring their long-term effectiveness and integration into the county's infrastructure standards. The ordinance becomes effective upon its passage.
