St. Louis Utility Proposes Impervious Storm Water Fee

The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District (MSD) has proposed an increase in storm water fees based on how much water a property can absorb. The fee will be on the ballot April 2 and, if approved, would cost the average homeowner approximately $27 annually. The fee is expected to provide almost $30 million to MSD for storm water and erosion control projects.
