Summary:
In 2015, Hawaii’s state legislature passed legislation that allows counties to establish storm water utilities. The City and County of Honolulu’s Department of Facility Maintenance (DFM) is managing Honolulu’s study of options for a storm water utility and fee structure. DFM has completed initial cost of service assessments and a draft rate analysis, which will be shared at this meeting. A Stakeholder Advisory Group and input from a series of 18 community meetings is providing DFM with input on the types of services to be provided by the utility, options for a balanced and equitable fee structure, and desired types of credits.
Input and questions from members of HAEP is welcome and encouraged. The project website includes a short video, email sign-up, dates and locations for community meetings, and materials from all Stakeholder Advisory Group meetings: www.stormwaterutilityoahu.org
