§ 15-110. Request for adjustment.

All requests for adjustment of the stormwater management utility fee shall be submitted to the stormwater management utility director and shall be reviewed as follows:

(1)

All requests shall be in writing and set forth in detail the grounds upon which an adjustment is sought. All requests shall be judged on the basis of the amount of impervious area on the lot or parcel, and/or additional or enhanced stormwater facility on or serving the lot or parcel. No credit shall be given for the installation of facilities required by county or village development codes or state stormwater regulations.

(2)

All adjustment requests made during the first calendar year that the fee is imposed shall be reviewed by the stormwater management utility director within a one-year period from the date of submission. Any adjustments resulting from such requests shall be retroactive to the effective date of this article.

(3)

All adjustment requests received after the first calendar year that the fee is imposed shall be reviewed by the stormwater management utility director within a four-month period from the date of submission. Any adjustments resulting from such requests shall be retroactive to the date of submission of the adjustment request, but shall not exceed one-year.

(4)

The customer or property owner requesting the adjustment may be required, at his own cost, to provide supplemental information to the stormwater management utility director including but not limited to, backup information and analysis, historical, geological and other fact information, expert opinions, survey data, and engineering reports to substantiate customer's case. Failure to provide such information may result in a denial of the adjustment request.

(e)

The stormwater management utility director shall provide the person requesting the adjustment with a written determination of the request within the time provided herein. Any adjustment shall be prorated monthly.
