[L-O 10-050]
Development Services Director Hamilton summarized the Report to City Council (staff
report) dated February 16, 2010, noting that the 2009 report does not reflect the Federal

as emails from the Olney Creek neighborhood group had requested.

not have to recuse herself from voting on this item because it was not specific to personal
holdings in the Olney Creek area.

acceptance of the report due to allegedly incomplete data and Olney Creek levee/ floodplain
Issues.
Council Member Stegall requested that Development Services Director Hamilton address
points brought out by the aforementioned speakers.
Mr. Hamilton stated that the Evaluation Report is a generic overview of the City's existing
programs that includes a substantial number of documents and is not meant to be all-
inclusive nor include every flood related issue. The City's Zoning Ordinance, General Plan
02/16/2010

Policies and other City Ordinances are in place to address flood issues and are applied to
each project as they come forward in the normal course of business. "Hot spots" are relative
to areas that have on-going problems with flooding. The Evaluation Report pertains to a
broad scope of issues on a project and maintenance basis, and is more relative to enforcement
of existing Zoning Ordinance and Building Code requirements and policies related to
development in floodplains.
Responding to Ms. Stegall, Mr. Hamilton stated that the hydrologic study of Olney Creek
would be a more appropriate conduit for discussion of the concerns area residents have
expressed.
Responding to Council Member Dickerson, Mr. Hamilton reaffirmed that the Olney Creek
levee was a separate issue and would be dealt with appropriately.
I
A MOTION WAS MADE by Council Member Dickerson, seconded by Council Member
Stegall, to accept the Flood Management Plan 2009 Evaluation Report.
