Street Maintenance Fee

WHAT IS A STREET MAINTENANCE FEE?

A street maintenance fee is a source of revenue to fund street system maintenance. The fee is based on use of the street system by residential and commercial properties. It is billed monthly through City utility bills, and revenue is placed in a street maintenance fund to be used solely for maintaining the street system. It may not be used for construction or reconstruction of streets.

HOW MUCH IS THE STREET MAINTENANCE FEE?

The street maintenance fee is $10.00 per single-family equivalent per month. A single-family home is charged $10.00 per month, and the fee is adjusted for other types of properties. (See Street Maintenance Fee Ordinance for specific property type calculations.) 

WHEN DID THE STREET MAINTENANCE FEE TAKE EFFECT?

City Council adopted the Street Maintenance Fee Ordinance December 11, 2018. Implementation took approximately six months. Fee collection began July 1, 2019.  (See below for original Street Maintenance Fee Ordinance plus any Amendments to ordinance.)

HOW DO I REQUEST ADJUSTMENT/EXEMPTION?

Single-family residences are assessed a fee of $10.00 per month. Other residential properties are assessed a fee based on single-family equivalents per dwelling unit. Non-residential properties are classified by use, and the fee is calculated using a single-family equivalent per unit. If you believe your property has been classified or calculated incorrectly, please submit the
