WHY IS A STORMWATER UTILITY FUND NEEDED? <br />3 <br />HOW MUCH FUNDING IS NEEDED? <br />•The City has historically paid for stormwater related expenses from its general <br />fund (tax levy). Ongoing and increased costs to maintain the stormwater <br />system have made this approach unsustainable. Little Canada is one of the <br />only cities remaining in the Twin Cities that have not yet gone to a <br />Stormwater Utility approach to provide funding for it’s stormwater <br />infrastructure. <br />•A minimum of $500,000 of annual revenue is needed to support the ongoing <br />costs to maintain the City’s stormwater system.
