<br /> <br /> <br />Storm Water Utility Report <br />City of Lino Lakes, MN <br />WSB Project No. 017518-000 Page 3 <br />3. STORM WATER UTILITY FEE DETERMINATION <br /> <br />This section outlines the methodology to determine a just and equitable SWU fee that meets the City’s <br />needs to maintain and improve their storm water system. In general, parcels with higher percentages of <br />impervious surface, which generate larger volumes of stormwater runoff, will be charged higher fees. <br /> <br />3.1 Land Use & Impervious Coverage Determination <br /> <br />A combination of the City’s existing (2017) land use designations, (2020) Anoka County aerial imagery, <br />and the most recent (2021) parcel data was used to determine the 2021 existing land use designations <br />for each parcel (Figure 1). Impervious areas throughout the City were digitized, based on (2017) USDA <br />Farm Service Agency and (2020) Anoka County aerial imagery. From this, the impervious area was <br />computed for each parcel. <br /> <br />3.2 SWU Fees & Estimated Revenue <br /> <br />The SWU fee was determined for each parcel based on land use and impervious coverage. Land uses <br />fall into one of three categories, residential, non-residential, and exempt. Residential parcels (single <br />family, multi-family, and rural residential) are all charged per parcel at the residential base fee. The <br />residential base fee is computed as follows: <br /> 𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅 𝐡𝐡𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅 𝐹𝐹𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅= 𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝑅𝑅𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝑅𝑅𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝑅𝑅 𝑅𝑅𝐼𝐼𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅 𝐼𝐼𝑅𝑅 𝐼𝐼𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅 𝐼𝐼𝑅𝑅𝐼𝐼𝑝𝑝𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑇𝑇𝐼𝐼𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑅 𝑅𝑅𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝑅𝑅𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝑅𝑅𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝑅𝑅 𝑅𝑅𝐼𝐼𝑅𝑅𝑅π‘
