Title
Substitute resolution establishing the 2009 Equivalent Residential Unit and 2009 Equivalent Residential Unit Rate used in calculation of the Storm Water Management Charge.

Analysis
This resolution establishes the 2009 Equivalent Residential Unit as 1,610 square feet and the 2009 Equivalent Residential Unit Rate as $11.82 per quarter. Based on these values, the Storm Water Management Charge for 2009 is as follows:

Dwelling containing 1-4 dwelling units, including condominiums: $11.82 per quarter

Nonresidential developed property or vacant, improved property: (impervious area of property (sq. ft.)/1,610 sq. ft.) x $11.82 (per quarter)

Whereas, Section 309-54 requires the Common Council to adopt, on an annual basis, a resolution establishing the “Equivalent Residential Unit” or “ERU” (citywide average impervious area of residential developed property) and the “Equivalent Residential Unit Rate” or “ERU Rate” (fee charged on each Equivalent Residential Unit) used in the calculation of the Storm water Management Charge; and

Whereas, Section 309-54 provides that the Storm Water Management Charge for each dwelling (building containing one to 4 dwelling units) on a residential developed property shall be the ERU rate, while the Storm Water Management Charge for a nonresidential developed property or a vacant, improved property shall be the total impervious area of the property divided by the ERU multiplied by the ERU rate; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the 2009 Equivalent Residential Unit is 1,610 square feet; and, be it

Further Resolved, That the 2009 Equivalent Residential Unit Rate is $11.82 per quarter; and, be it
