Storm Water Fees

Fee determinations are based on a number of variables.

Drainage considerations that must be addressed include:

• Location of structures (roads, reservoirs, underground utilities, etc.)
• Location and limits of grading
• Location of existing drainage facilities (waterways, conduits, culverts, or bridges)
• Slope stability, erosion potential, and water quality related issues
• Watershed hydrology and related issues
• Flooding and other related drainage characteristics of the area
• Existing wetlands, vernal pools, or riparian corridors
• Proximity of leach field locations

Due to the complexity of these determinations, it is unwise to make assumptions until the full scope of a project is determined by Permit Sonoma staff at the time an application is accepted.

Please do not fill in amounts on checks prior to application acceptance.
