Arvada Stormwater Management Utility Ordinance

The Arvada stormwater management utility ordinance requires landowners with property in the city that has impervious surfaces to pay a stormwater management utility service charge. The proceeds fund the costs of the city’s stormwater facilities and projects. The payment is assessed based on the square footage of impervious surface multiplied by the unit charge per square foot.
