A stormwater utility is based on the premise that the urban drainage system is a public system, similar to water or wastewater systems. When a demand is placed on these systems, the user is responsible for that service. A stormwater utility, like other utilities, provides a service to the public, supported by charging fees to its customers. As a separate enterprise fund, the utility charges operate and maintain the existing system, and, under certain conditions finance capital improvements. User fees provide a consistent, predictable, long-term revenue source.
The stormwater rate system bills properties based on the flows that they generate that make use of the stormwater system, as represented by impervious area. Impervious surfaces do not absorb water. Examples of impervious areas include roofs, pavement, sidewalks, patios, and gravel or crushed stone surfaces.
This seminar is free but requires registration in advance. Please send an email to lrubin@hrwc.org. The seminar starts at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 12 noon. Parking is free at the New Center, and the conference room is located upstairs on the second floor.
