Apply stormwater fee increase to city-owned former redevelopment parcels
In Plain English
The city owns properties that once belonged to the dissolved Richmond Community Redevelopment Agency. These parcels currently don't pay the stormwater fees that other property owners pay under the 2012 Clean Water Initiative. If approved, the city pays the same stormwater rates on these properties as private owners do.

Why This Vote Matters
The city will now pay stormwater fees on properties it inherited from the dissolved Richmond Community Redevelopment Agency, bringing them in line with what private property owners pay under the 2012 Clean Water Initiative. The council approved this change with broad support in a 5-1 vote, with Councilmember Boozé dissenting and McLaughlin absent. This means the city will no longer receive a de facto exemption from the stormwater program fees that other property owners must pay. Boozé's opposition marks a rare departure from his usual strong support for budget measures.
