Storm Sewer System <br /> Storm Sewer revenues are based on a fixed quarterly fee based on the type of property being <br /> served. The quarterly charge is established to pay for the cost of operating and maintaining the <br /> system. <br /> Below is a chart which demonstrates the breakdown of the types of users in the storm sewer <br /> utility by Residential Equivalent Unit. The City bills storm sewer to commercial property and <br /> residents who have water service, those on sewer service only and those who have private well <br /> and septic. Commercial properties represent a higher proportion of users in comparison to water <br /> usage, because commercial properties have more impervious surfaces, such as parking lots, that <br /> direct storm water through the storm water system and into lakes, rivers and streams. <br /> Percentage Breakdown of Storm Water Residential ', <br /> Equivalent Users <br /> �2% <br /> ��. ....�.,: �, <br /> , <br /> '��n ' f' �I `;i�� �I ' <br /> `��ti��i� <br /> �r�'�� ;a�,. � - <br /> 'O Commercial <br /> $$% ■Residential <br /> Proposed Storm Sewer Rates <br /> This proposed rate structure shows an increase of approximately 10% for all accounts based on <br /> residential equivalent unit. This fee needs to increase at this rate for several years. The quarterly <br /> storm sewer fee would increase by $1.03 to $11.33 per quarter. The full schedule of proposed <br /> rate increases is shown below. <br /> Utiliry Rute Studv Page?0 <br /> Cen�ofOro�ro.,4finnesota Decernber,3009 <br />
