This Bangor ordinance establishes stormwater service fees based on recommendations from the Utility, with rates primarily calculated according to the impervious surface area of properties, and exemptions available under specific conditions. Property owners are responsible for paying these fees, though credits may be granted for implementing approved on-site stormwater management practices that reduce runoff volume or improve water quality. To receive a credit, owners must apply with supporting documentation, maintain stormwater controls, and meet performance standards, with periodic reviews and maintenance verification required to retain the credit.
