A stormwater fee of $5.00 per month shall be charged for each residence. This shall include each
single family home, each duplex or multiple units, each mobile home or any other dwelling unit.
2. Non-residential properties shall be charged a monthly stormwater fee based on the rate
established in Paragraph 1 ($5.00) multiplied by the number of Equivalent Residential Units
(ERU's) assigned to the property. In the case ofnon-residential multiple unit properties on
separate meters, the calculated charge for the entire property shall be pro-rated and billed to each
unit according to the square footage of that unit as a percentage of the total property.
3. An Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU) equals the average impervious area of a residential unit
and is hereby established as 3,154 square feet.
4. Non-residential properties shall be assigned ERU's calculated by dividing the total impervious
area of the property by the ERU established in Paragraph 3. ERU's shall be rounded to the
nearest one-tenth (0.1) of a unit.
5. A credit equal to forty percent (40%) of the calculated fee will be given for on-site stormwater
retention if the property has a properly maintained water retention area that has been engineered
by a Florida Registered Professional Engineer and meets or exceeds the requirements of the City
of Clermont Stormwater Code. In no case shall the fee be less than $3.00 per month per unit.
6. Billing shall be on a monthly basis and shall be included in the city utility bill for other services.
In the event a property is vacant, that is, where a tenant or owner has vacated the building and
discontinued other city services, the property owner shall continue to be charged the stormwater
utility fee. Multi-units with a single meter shall be billed to the holder of the utility account.
7. Public rights-of--way and municipally owned and operated facilities are exempt from all
stormwater fees.
