Press Release DATE: February 28, 2019 For Immediate Release The Kane County Stormwater Management Planning Committee has released the revisions to the Kane County Stormwater Ordinance for a 30-day public review and comment. The revisions aim to incorporate Ordinance language from the Technical Manual, address conflicting language within the Ordinance, make the Ordinance more user friendly, add requirements for water quality/best management practices, standardize detention triggers, promote redevelopment and provide watershed benefit options that encourage farmland preservation.
Following the Public Hearing, we anticipate the Stormwater Management Planning Committee will make a recommendation to the County Board at their April 9, 2019, 4:00 PM meeting. If approved by the County Board at their May meeting, the Ordinance would become effective June 1, 2019, and will be the countywide minimum standard.

Over three hundred copies of the Ordinance revisions have been distributed for public review to County Board Members, municipal and village offices, township offices, consulting engineering firms, and interested organizations for review and comment. We encourage you to review these Ordinance revisions and provide your comments.
