protect public safety. Section 5-2-4.E of the City Code further designates the area within 500 feet of
collector and arterial streets as being within the No Discharge Zone. This section of the City Code must be
updated to include the new designations of CSAH 38 and CR 137. Areas included in the No Discharge Zone
are designated by adoption of a map in accordance with Section 5-2-7 of the City Code. The map carries
over from year-to-year unless an updated map is approved by the City Council by September 1. City staff is
proposing updating the No Discharge Zone Map to include recently approved developments, including
Prairie View Elementary -Middle School.
