“If it is determined pursuant to the City Code, the Subdivision Regulations as adopted and incorporated within the City Code, or the City Engineer that detention facilities are required for the development of property, the developer may pay a fee-in-lieu of providing said detention facilities to the City of Shawnee if it is determined by the City Engineer that the runoff from the development of land will not adversely impact or raise water surface elevations to properties adjacent to or downstream from the development,” the proposition reads. “Said fee-in-lieu must be paid in full before the City Engineer, the City Planner, or any other City employee, official, agent, or designee approves the commencement of said development.”
