Campbell County:
“Campbell County Community Development Director Paul Harvey
presented the Board of Supervisors with the draft ordinance and the proposed
county fee schedule at its Feb. 4 meeting and asked for permission to advertise
the ordinance and hold the public hearing. Supervisors approved the request
7-0.
While there are some bills being considered in the Virginia
General Assembly that could affect the stormwater management program, Harvey
said it was important to go ahead and hold the public hearing because the
county is required to have a local ordinance and fee schedule adopted by May 15
and sent to the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality, the state agency
overseeing the program.
He said supervisors are not required to vote on the ordinance
on March 4, but holding the public hearing would put the process in motion.
The Virginia Stormwater Management Program is the mandatory
permitting process related to construction activity. Effective July 1, the VSMP
will be administered by localities along with erosion and sediment control
laws.”
