Probably doesn't have access to a storm line. Most areas in the city require you to connect to the main. If there are no storm mains available or grades that make it impossible to tie in they usually use a sump. City will not usually allow storm ties to sanitary especially if the water table is high because it introduces constant flow.

I work with water resources and might be able to help if you can describe the site a bit better. What kind of surface and size of area does the sump discharge to right now? Is there significant slopes? A pic would help too.
