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 January 1, 1998, the single-family
residential rate shall be two dollars and forty-four cents ($2.44) per month for each parcel

Effective December 31, 1999, the single-family residential rate shall be two dollars and
forty-seven cents ($2.47) per month for each parcel having one (1) residential dwelling
plus the basin specific charge of subsection B.4 below.
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 service 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:

(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 powers and
authorities 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
