(a) For purposes of determining the storm water user fees, all properties in the City are classified into one of the following classes:
(1) Residential property;
(2) Other developed property;
(3) Exempt property.
(b) Residential property fee: The City Council finds that the intensity of development of most parcels of real property in the City zoned residential is similar and that it would be excessively and unnecessarily expensive to determine precisely the square footage of the improvements (such as buildings, structures, and other impervious areas) on each such parcel. Therefore, all residential units in the City shall be charged a flat storm water management fee, equal the base rate, regardless of the size of the parcel or improvements. Multi-family properties shall be charged the base rate multiplied by the number of residential units included in the property.
(c) Other developed property fee: The fee for other developed property in the City shall be according to the following scale:
Total Impervious Surface Area | Fee per Month |
1 - 10,000 sf | $4.00 |
10,001 - 25,000 sf | $7.00 |
25,001 – 50,000 sf | $10.00 |
50,001 – 100,000 sf | $20.00 |
100,001 sf and up | $40.00 |
