What it pays for

“Storm Drainage Impact Fee Fund — The subject impact fees are for a geographic area identified as Southport/south basin. Southport further defines geographic sub-basins for revenues and expenditures. Three sub-basins have improvement needs which exceed current revenues. A fourth basin's improvement needs require further evaluation before disposition of basins revenues. — A Citywide Storm Drainage / Storm Water Master Plan was completed in April 2022. The Master Plan recommends numerous improvements which will be prioritized and funded by Council in future budgets as available funding permits.”

About these figures

Quoted, not summarized. Every amount and fact on this page is copied from the official document it links to. If we couldn’t find something in a document, we leave it blank instead of guessing.

Before any discounts. Some fees offer credits, waivers or phase-ins. They’re listed above but not subtracted, because whether you qualify depends on your project.

Check the date. Fees change. This page shows what was in force on the date at the top, with a link to the document that set it, so you can confirm the current amount yourself. How all of this is put together.
