(A) Stormwater utility fees for particular parcels of land shall be determined by multiplying the residential equivalent factor for the parcel acreage range, as provided in this section, times the base rate established by the council, times the maximum acreage allowed per tier of the parcel of land.
(REF)(BASE RATE)(MAX ACREAGE) = MONTHLY CHARGE
Parcel Acreage Range | REF | Max Acreage |
>0 Acres and <0.5 Acres | 1.5 | 0.5 |
>=0.5 Acres and <1.0 Acres | 1.0 | 1 |
>=1.0 Acres and <2.0 Acres | 0.8 | 2 |
>=2.0 Acres and <3.0 Acres | 0.7 | 3 |
>=3.0 Acres | 0.25 | 10 |
Example 1 - 0.33 ACRE PARCEL - REF = 1.5 and Max Acreage = 0.5
Example 2 - 0.89 ACRE PARCEL - REF = 1.0 and Max Acreage = 1.0
Example 3 - 7.2 ACRE PARCEL - REF = 0.25 and Max Acreage = 10.0
(B) Parcels that fall within the FEMA designated 100-year or 500-year floodplain will be charged the minimum amount for any parcel within the city. (>0 acres and <0.5 acres)
