The Municipal Code of Ordinances of the City of La Crosse establishes guidance and governs requirements related to stormwater on private parcels and properties in the City of La Crosse.  Per the Code, the general purpose and intent is to establish long-term, post-construction runoff management requirements that will diminish the threats to public health, safety, and welfare and the aquatic environment.

The Municipal Code provides additional information regarding management plans, hydrologic units, watersheds, and various treatment methods and devices.  It also covers applicability, administration, and inspections.  The Stormwater Application process is overseen by the Engineering & Public Works Department, with post-construction enforcement by Stormwater Utility staff.

Two documents, below, are available to facilitate the Stormwater Permit Application process.

• Stormwater Permit Application
• Stormwater Maintenance Agreement Form
