Cost: I would be willing to pay a higher stormwater utility rate to see more stormwater projects implemented quickly.

Public vs Private Property: Public stormwater funds (collected from citizen’s stormwater utility fee) should be spent on privately-owned property to resolve private drainage issues resulting from growth? (*Note: growth pays for growth, but growth doesn’t pay to resolve existing conditions.)

Please select the FOUR MOST important criteria for determining which surface water projects get constructed:

Response Percent Response Count
Safety: The project reduces a safety risk by decreasing/eliminating the safety impact or frequency of the drainage issue. 60.0% 3
Multiple surface water benefits: The project protects or improves natural resources at or near site, such as water quality, fish habitat, stream/lake/wetland characteristics. 20.0% 1
Community benefit: The project ranking method should give more weight to projects that benefit many people, as opposed to projects that may only benefit a few. 80.0% 4
Community interest: The majority of the community or neighborhood should support the proposed project. 60.0% 3
Time-sensitive opportunity: The project should be prioritized if there are opportunities to coordinate with another project’s implementation, or take advantage of a unique opportunity Ex: one-time funding, leveraging another project timeline or funding 60.0% 3
Meets other City priorities: The project provides other benefits, such as recreation, education, open space, riparian habitat, community livability, wildlife habitat. 20.0% 1
Plan consistency: The project should be ranked highly if it is already identified in an adopted Basin Plan (such as the Zackuse Creek Basin Plan). 20.0% 1
Improves a facility maintenance issue: The project provides a long-term, cost-savings solution to on-going maintenance problem. 20.0% 1
Maintains existing stormwater infrastructure: The project improves, corrects a defect, or removes a threat to existing stormwater infrastructure. 60.0% 3
