ForDiscussionPurposesOnly
More than 20,000 previously unbilledparcels begin to accrue charges of$750 per impervious acre or 1.7 centsper impervious square foot per monthOctober 2016. First bills received inNovember. No back-billing.
Parcels with less than 0.02 imperviousacres (871 square feet) will not bebilled.
PhaseII:NotBeingBilled
8
Orange and greenparcels are not chargedfor drainage.
Billing these previously unbilled parcels could provide additional revenueand offset costs. If everyone pays their “fair share”, DWSD can bring downrates and all customers pay less.
