The Baltimore City Department of Public Works, in coordination with Cirque Du Soleil, is accepting public review and comments for a request to issue a Stormwater Management Redevelopment Waiver to the City Code for a redevelopment project on the property located at 2001 Kloman Street, Baltimore, MD 21230.

Notice is hereby given that the public is invited to comment on the request by Cirque Du Soleil, to have a Stormwater Management Waiver granted for the redevelopment project. Comments related to this request must be received by 5:00 p.m. on February 2, 2011, to ensure consideration by the Department.

The site in question has an area of 44.11 acres. Existing impervious surfaces comprised 35.16 acres and presently 28.15 acres of impervious surfaces have been removed. This phase of the project will add 5.3 acres of impervious surface, which is below the 50% requirement for removal of impervious surfaces.

In order to meet the 2010 Baltimore City SWM Ordinance requirements for the proposed redevelopment project, a waiver for Stormwater Management Requirements is requested. This project reduces the impervious area of the site by 65%, greater than the 50% reduction required for redevelopment, in accordance with the Baltimore City Stormwater Management ordinance section 23-7.
