The Drainage Utility fee will be based upon the amount of area on each
property that does not allow water to absorb into the ground, such as
driveways, patios, and rooftops. The Drainage Utility fee will be
charged to each utility customer (residential, business, non-profit,
special district, church, state, and federal) in the City of Federal
Heights. The fee will provide revenue of approximately $400,000 per
year, 30% for the Stormwater Quality Management Program and 70% for
Capital Improvement Projects.
