(a) User Fee Credits may be available to properties that have existing storm water detention facilities, or those planning such facilities, may have their storm water management service charges reduced in a manner proportionate to the operation, maintenance and capital improvements activities not required to be undertaken by the City. The specific application of these credits shall be set forth in the Water and Sewer Rules and Regulations, and in accordance with generally accepted engineering standards and practices to more accurately reflect the contribution to runoff from the premises and the level of service provided to such premises.
