its customers for service, amending Kent City
Code (KCC)7.05.090 (previously enacted as

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENT, WASHINGTON, DOES
HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. K.C.C. 7.05.090 is amended to read as
follows:
Sec. 7.05.090. System of charges.
A. There is hereby imposed a system of charges on
each parcel of real property within the city served by or to
which is available for service the storm and surface water
utility established by this chapter. The charges are found to be
reasonable and necessary to fund administration, planning,
design, construction, operation, maintenance, repair,
improvement, and replacement of all existing and future storm and
surface water facilities, including the accumulation of reserves
and the retirement of any associated debt.
B. The following charges are hereby established for
all parcels of real property in the city:
1. Residential parcels: Effective April January
1, 199-56, the single-family residential charge rate shall be twe
one dollars and twenty feur eighty-two cents ($2.24) (51.82) per
month for each parcel having one (1) residential dwelling plus
the basin -specific charge of subsection B.4. below. Effective
January 1, 199{77,the single-family residential rate shall change
to two dollars and sixty six nineteen cents ($2.66) ($2.19) per
month for each parcel having one residential dwelling plus the
basin specific charge of KCC 7.05.090(B)(4). Effective January
1, 1998, the single-family residential rate shall change to two
dollars and forty-four cents (82.44) per month for each parcel
having one residential dwellingplus the basin specific charge of
KCC 7.05.090 (B) (4) .
2. Agricultural and undeveloped parcels:
Agricultural parcels shall be charged the monthly residential
parcel rate. Undeveloped parcels shall not be charged.
3. Other parcels:
a. The charge for all other parcels except
residential parcels, agricultural parcels and undeveloped parcels
shall be based upon:
(1) The total amount of impervious
surface as expressed in equivalent surface units (an equivalent
service unit has been determined to be two thousand five hundred
(2,500) square feet of impervious surface or any fraction
thereof); and
(2) The percentage of impervious
surface area on each parcel.
b. The charge for all such parcels shall be
computed:
(1) By multiplying the total number of
ESU's on each by the appropriate parcel impervious multiplier;
and
(2) Multiplying the results by the sum
of the single-family residential rate and the appropriate basin -
specific charge.
C. Impervious multipliers are hereby
established:
(1)

(2) Impervious multipliers correlate
the hydraulic impact of a parcel to its percentage of impervious
surface per parcel. The multiplier for the average single-family
residence is established as one (1). The multiplier linearly
increases as the percentage of impervious area increases. The
final category has a multiplier of one and six -tenths (1.6) which
reflects the hydraulic impact on the drainage system compared to
that impact of the average single-family residence.
4. Basin -specific charges: The city shall have
all lawful power and authority to fix, alter, regulate and
control charges within specific basins and subbasins. The purpose
of the power and authority granted in this section is to provide
for charging parcels of one (1) basin or subbasin for
improvements, studies or extraordinary maintenance which
specifically and solely benefit the property owners within that
basin or subbasin. The basin -specific charges are denoted in the
following tables and shall become effective on the dates
indicated on the tables:

(2) Impervious multipliers correlate

surface per parcel. The multiplier for the average single-family
residence is established as one (1). The multiplier linearly
increases as the percentage of impervious area increases. The
final category has a multiplier of one and six -tenths (1.6) which
reflects the hydraulic impact on the drainage system compared to
that impact of the average single-family residence.

of the power and authority granted in this section is to provide

discharges into the storm and surface water system, including the
exercise of all lawful enforcement powers of the city. A plan for
developing such charges, and a schedule and budget for this
project shall be submitted to the city council for review and
approval within ninety (90) days of adoption of this chapter. A
system of water pollution charges for storm and surface water
run-off from all parcels of real property in the city shall be
developed within two (2) years.
b. Such charges should be based upon
appropriate indices of pollutant discharges which approximate
each parcel's contribution to the problem of water quality within
storm and surface water facilities including all receiving
waters.
6. Undeveloped parcels shall be subject to all
charges established under this section upon development of a
parcel. Development shall be determined by the date of issuance

or as otherwise established by the director of public works.
