For the purpose stated in this chapter there is hereby charged to each Utility user and property, lot, parcel of land, building or premises (collectively, "properties") situated within the corporate limits of the City, that is tributary directly or indirectly to the stormwater system, Utility Service Charges determined as provided in this section.
All properties having impervious area within the City shall be assigned an Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU), or a multiple thereof, which will be at a minimum one ERU.
All improved single-family residential properties are assigned one ERU. A flat rate will apply to all single-family residential properties. All improved single-family residential properties are determined to include impervious area typical of a single-family residence.
All properties having an impervious area which are not improved single-family residential properties are to be assigned by the City Engineer an ERU multiple based upon the properties' estimated impervious area (in square feet) divided by 2,530 square feet (one ERU). This division will be calculated to the second decimal place and rounded according to mathematical convention to the nearest whole ERU.
The Utility Service Charge is six dollars and thirty-six cents ($6.36) per month per Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU) which shall be effective from and after January 1, 2023.
