Council approves $899 refund after stormwater billing error
Summary
The council voted to refund about $899 after staff confirmed two parcels had been combined in 2017/2018, which caused the property to be overcharged on stormwater ERUs since 2018; staff will verify records and issue the refund.
The council reviewed a stormwater utility appeal in which a property that had been two parcels was later combined in the county records. Staff and the utility consultant explained that the parcel combination changed how equivalent residential units (ERUs) were calculated and created an overcharge dating back to 2018.
After verifying the property record card that showed parcels were combined for 2017 pay 2018, a council member moved to refund the overcharged amount (approximately $899) and the motion carried by voice vote. Staff said they would verify the change in the recorder’s office and process the refund through the utility billing system.
