Why has Pasco County chosen to implement a separate fee for stormwater management?
By establishing a dedicated funding source through stormwater fees, the County can ensure that revenue required to manage and maintain this important system is available. A fee based on impervious surface area is an equitable way to charge and collect revenues for this program. An impervious surface area is an area such as a parking lot where water runs off the surface instead of getting absorbed into the ground.
