CITY OF HURST
FY 2025-2026 ADOPTED BUDGET
STORM DRAINAGE UTILITY FUND
REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES
The Storm Drainage Utility Fund was implemented during Fiscal Year 2008-2009. This utility fee is determined by calculating
impervious area for properties throughout the City. The fee is assessed on water bills and will generate funding for
drainage projects and unfunded federal mandates associated with the state required Stormwater Management Plan.
Fiscal Year 2024-2025 included an inflationary increase of 12.5% as part of a multi-year plan to bring this fee in line with
inflation since originally adopted. The current fee is $4.50 for each single family dwelling unit. Commercial rates are based
upon square footage of impervious surface. The proposed budget includes a 12.5% rate increase which is below the CPI
measure of 44% since the rate was approved in 2008.
