. . Ms. Dorothy Person February'lO, 1993 Page Two Utility Zoning Factor R-l 1.00 R-2 1.31 R-3 2.72 R-4 2.72 Industrial 4.25 Busines~ 4.25 For example, a property wned R-4, based on its density of units, contributes 2.72 times as much runoff as a property in a R-l district. Similarly, business or industrial properties contribute 4.25 times as much runoff as a R-l property. Given these utility factors and the data from City Planner Bergly, the quarterly rates for each wning classification can be determined. It is at this point that the City Council would decide how much revenue is necessary for storm sewer infrastructure and maintenance. . Based on collecting $40,000 per quarter, as has been previously discussed, the following rates would be necessary: R-l $ 10. 32/Acre - $3.44/Unit Based on 3 Units/Acre R-2 $ 13. 52/Acre = $3.38/Unit Based on 4 Units/Acre R-3 $28.07/Acre R-4 $28.07/Acre Industrial $43. 86/Acre Business $43. 86/Acre This new rate structure has reduced the proposed quarterly rate for single family units from $4.95/unit to $3.44/unit, and proportionately raises the rate for residential properties. Should the council choose to establish $4.95/unit as a quarterly rate for an R-l property, this rate structure would generate approximately $56.200 per quarter, including a rate of $63.11 per acre for industrial and commercial properties. As evidenced by the Keithson Pond and Arden Place projects, and maintenance and equipment needs, the needs for revenue will exceed the amount collected. Another issue to consider is the possibility of collecting revenue from land that is presently undeveloped. Communities that surround Arden Hills, including Shoreview and Roseville, do not charge undeveloped property. However, undeveloped properties do contribute storm . water runoff and, therefore, share in the burden of maintenance of the storm sewer infrastructure. There are currently 110.1 acres of undeveloped residentially-wned property, ----.----
