Issue Overview
Plain English Summary
Huntington wants to change how stormwater fees are calculated. Properties with more concrete and pavement would pay more, while properties with more green space would pay less.
Description
The City of Huntington is proposing updates to its stormwater utility fee structure. The new system would charge property owners based on impervious surface area rather than a flat rate. The changes are intended to comply with EPA requirements and fund improvements to the city's stormwater infrastructure, including green infrastructure projects and combined sewer overflow reductions.
Potential Impacts
Properties with large driveways or commercial lots may see higher fees. Residential properties with yards may see lower fees. City stormwater infrastructure would receive funding for upgrades.
