Brunswick City Council adopted an ordinance establishing Chapter 1050 of the Brunswick Codified Ordinances. This chapter created a Stormwater Management Utility (the Utility) and established equitable rates and charges and an administrative structure to provide for funding the Utility's programs. (See the press release here.)

The Stormwater Management Utility service fee is necessary to pay the costs of the Utility's programs for the operations, maintenance, repair and replacement of the capital facilities of the City's stormwater drainage system, for the planning, design, acquisition, construction, reconstruction, improvement and extension of capital facilities of that system, to provide for the payment of debt service on obligations incurred and anticipated to be incurred for capital facilities of that system and to maintain adequate fund reserves to provide for reasonable expected variations in the collection of service fees, in the cost of providing services, and in the demand for services.

Effective January 1, 2012, each lot of parcel of real property within the City corporate limits shall be charged an Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU) pursuant to Chapter 1050 of the Brunswick Codified Ordinances.
