STORM WATER BOARD OF APPEALS
Lakeland residents with legal, arbitration or related experience or having the expertise to evaluate actions are needed to determine if actions are in accordance with regulations are encouraged to apply!
The Storm Water Board of Appeals is an appeals board that reviews decisions or actions of the City of Lakeland in storm water and erosion control matters. The board meets only when an appeal is filed on a storm water issue. However, the board is required to meet once per year.
Knowledge of storm water issues such as erosion and sedimentation, storm water pollution prevention plans, and state environmental regulations is not required. The ability to review a decision to insure that the appropriate procedures were followed is required. Persons with a legal, arbitration or similar background are especially encouraged to apply, but residents with the ability to review information, state and city regulations, and the enforcement actions taken on a specific situation and then make fair and impartial decisions are encouraged to apply.
The decision of the board is the last administrative appeal for violations, so it is important that members be able to consider all facets of a situation and make a ruling based on the appropriate regulations.
Members of the five member board are appointed by the Board of Commissioners. Contact Theresa Meyer at 867-2717 for an application form. Potential applicants are also encouraged to discuss the position requirements with City Engineer Philip Stuckert, City Manager Robert Wherry or City Attorney David Lakin.
