We build water treatment and wastewater treatment plants, no way is the city going pay to treat rainwater. And it will quickly overwhelm a plant. We have built them for Topeka, Tulsa, Wichita, Oklahoma City, Salina, Hutchinson, Abilene, Manhattan, Lawrence, and hundreds of other cities. You just can't send rainwater down the sewer lines - first they are not big enough, and the run off from a city with huge areas cover by buildings and pavement is tremendous - much more than a simple rain on open pasture or worked ground. Every single rain event would result in a huge release of water and sewage - not to mention the fact that the plants that use microbes to break down sewage would end up with a plant that wouldn't work.
The City of Topeka has an issue with their lines breaking - the plant near Shunga Creek seems to keep breaking pipes and releasing sewage into the creek that flows to the Kansas River. Every time it breaks they issue a warning to stay way from the Creek and for God's sake don't go into the water. They don't issue that warning every time it rains.
As for a mayor not knowing his infrastructure - a guy can own a home and not know where his water lines and sewer lines are. The head of the utilities department knows the infrastructure - the mayor knows when the Farmer's Market opens.

An improperly torqued capscrew on an engine head or a shear bolt that is too hard on the driving shaft of a bushog can create havoc and make an expensive and uncalled for repair. Let�s examine the purpose and design of these fasteners in order to ensure their proper use. Fasteners are probably one of the aspects of mechanics that is given the least amount of thought.
