City Removes Stormwater Deposit Fee to Assist Local Businesses
The City recently eliminated its Stormdrain Transfer Deposit Fee in an effort to lessen monetary requirements placed on businesses working on projects in Santa Clarita. The Santa Clarita City Council voted to remove the deposit fee, which will return more than $150,000 to businesses working in the City.
The City's Development Process Advisory Committee met with business owners who expressed concern that their projects would not be able to continue because they could not afford the City's Stormdrain Transfer Deposit Fee.
"The City recognizes the economic hardship many businesses and individuals are facing right now, said Mayor Frank Ferry. "The Council and Development Process Advisory Committee decided, though the fee was necessary, it would be best to remove it and allow City-based projects to continue."
For more information on the City's removal of the Storm Drain Transfer Deposit fee, please contact Mike Hennawy, Senior Engineer for the City's Public Works Division, at (661) 286-4056 or visit santa-clarita.com.
