Purpose.

It is the determination of this Town Board, after careful study and analysis of the Flood Control and Drainage Report for the Town of Webster, dated December 1967, prepared by Charles J. Costich, P.E., and Lozier Engineers, Inc., that certain flood control projects and improvements to the stormwater drainage facilities and structures within the Town will be required over the next several years in order to protect persons and property within the Town from serious injury and damage as a result of flooding. It is the purpose of this article to establish methods of financing part of the cost of such projects to assure that their construction will not create an undue financial burden on the present or future residents of the Town and that a fair share of the costs will be borne by those persons and properties which, by creating additional impervious area, shall contribute additional surface water runoff to the streams and culverts in the Town and thereby create or increase flooding conditions.
