MAIN AGENDA
PUBLIC HEARING & RESOLUTION TO ESTABLISH A STORM WATER UTILITY RATE:
Tony Bagwell and Laura Jarrett, HDR Engineering, Inc., who are responsible for the City's
Storm Water Utility Feasibility Report, were welcomed. Mr. Norman D. Radford, Jr., 4108
Purdue, was also present to support the fee schedule. Director of Public Works Bud Smallwood
stated that the passing of Resolution No. 03-17 establishing the storm water utility rate is the
second step in establishing the utility. The basis for the charge is the maximum amount of
impermeable surface by code for each zoning classification. The utility will generate
approximately $550,000 in annual revenue, of which half will be used for capital improvements
including an electronic mapping system, and several hundred thousand dollars will be used for
storm water quality improvements. Mayor Peek then opened the public hearing. Mr. Bagwell
answered several questions from the Council. Mayor Peek closed the public hearing.
Councilmember Holmes moved approval of Resolution No. 03-17 establishing a schedule of
draining charges. Councilmember Roberts seconded, and the vote was unanimous to approve the
resolution establishing a storm water utility rate.
