<br /> Storm Water Utility Report City of Lino Lakes, MN WSB Project No. 017518-000 Page 5 <br />To be considered for a credit, property owners must submit documentation to the City demonstrating that the criteria for a credit has been met. Additionally, an adjustment may be allowed to the SWU fee for a parcel if the property owner can demonstrate that less impervious surface is present on the parcel than is reflected by the current rate. To be considered for an adjustment, property owners must submit an exhibit to the City documenting the <br />total area of impervious surface on the parcel. Impervious surface includes pavement, roofs, water (swimming pools), gravel, and any other surface that prevents water from infiltrating into the ground. 3.4 SWU Comparison <br /> SWU fees and the way they are administered vary by municipality. Lino Lake’s proposed SWU fee falls within the range of nearby and comparison cities as shown in Tables 3 and 4 for single family parcels and intuitional/industrial/commercial parcels, respectively. The SWU fees in Tables 3 and 4 are based on information obtained from the comparison Cities’ utility billing information and City code, as determined via a phone call with the Finance Department or published on their respective websites and accessed between March and June 2021. These fees are subject to change and their accuracy is not guaranteed.
